CCL:G: Dioxane in PCM with G03



PCM methods are available in G03, if you read the manual carefully ( http://www.gaussian.com/g_ur/k_scrf.htm">http://www.gaussian.com/g_ur/k_scrf.htm )

However, as stated in the Gaussian manual: 'We list the ε values here for convenience, but be aware it is only one of many internal parameters used to define solvents. Thus, simply changing the ε value will not define a new solvent properly.'

So, using CCl4 will not work (if it works, its plain coincidence, not science!)

In order to solve such problem, please read more about PCM methods in any undergrad computational chemistry book and gather the data needed to solve the problem!

Best,
