Hello, I am beginner to use gaussian.
Recently, I want to optimize by gaussian the two molecules which I treat as one group on gaussview.
One molecule is Lithium complex and the other is -OtBu (anion). They are not combined.
What DFT basis set can I select for this calculation?
When I search for it, the adding the diffuse function is needed because of anion.
I am considering the use of DFT B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p).
