Hello !

I'm trying to optimize an octahedrical iridium +3 hexaaquo complex with BP86
functional (ADF2000) with and without relativistic effects (IV basis set),
but the geometry doesn't convege. Some time ago I made the same optimization
with HF methods and I found stable structure...

Can somebody give me some good advices ? I think that the MO occupation
isn't stable during SCF cycle and this lead to structural convergence
problems...

Best regards at all from Switzerland.
