For simply to perform any gaussian calculation in solvent phase and anion state or cation state , what should i optimize either solvent phase or anion state to obtain more precise result.
When performing Gaussian calculations for a molecule in different phases (e.g., gas and solvent) or different states (neutral, anion, or cation), the optimization strategy may vary based on your specific goals.
It's generally a good practice to iteratively refine your calculations based on the obtained results. Keep in mind that the choice of basis set, level of theory, and the solvent model can significantly impact the accuracy of your calculations. Always validate your results against experimental data when available and consider the specific requirements of your research or study.
