Hi

Honestly, I don't know how to do the quantum chemistry calculations for a compound.
But, from paper search, I can find the bond angle, bond length, dihedral angle, energy for both cis and trans azobenzene.
Could I simply adjust the force field parameters by trials and errors to fit the all structure data and energy data to claim they are indeed cis- azobenzene and trans- azobenzene?


what is the energy optimized geometry ?
My understanding is to run minimisation for azobenzene and then calculate the energy, right?


Thank you
Lin
