In my case, I use NRT to calculate the bond order of a compound named
"XK2" in PDB complex "1HVR".
http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/ligand/ligandsummary.do?hetId=XK2&sid=1HVR
,
It's always halted with the message "Too many resonance structures",
no matter what I try the NRTTHR=0.5~50.
Following is the output with G03: (When I change NRTTHR value, but
"Maximum resonance structures" is always the same.)
NATURAL RESONANCE THEORY ANALYSIS:
Maximum reference structures : 20
Maximum resonance structures : 47
Memory requirements : 5743881 words of 5802280 available
Warning: Low valence density detected in VALDM; Consider using NRTFDM option
FATAL ERROR: Too many resonance structures, MAXRES = 47.
TOPSTR: Too many resonance structures.
Error: NBHALT
Could you have any suggestions to my problem? Thanks!
