Use Vibrational Frequencies & Thermochemistry online for small-molecule quantum chemistry.

Optimize a small neutral gas-phase molecule, calculate its harmonic vibrational modes, and estimate ideal-gas rigid-rotor/harmonic-oscillator thermal corrections. Imaginary modes withhold thermal corrections. These results do not supply crystal melting points, fusion enthalpies or condensed-phase free energies.

How Vibrational Frequencies & Thermochemistry Works

Submit one neutral closed-shell molecule with at most 12 heavy atoms and 40 total atoms. The calculation always performs gas-phase DFT geometry optimization before the Hessian; an uploaded structure is a starting geometry. frequencies.csv contains signed frequencies and mode-character labels. Select a mode to inspect an exaggerated 16-frame SDF animation; the displayed amplitude is illustrative. normal_modes.csv contains the relative displacement vectors.

thermochemistry.csv reports electronic energy, mode counts, zero-point energy, thermal enthalpy/Gibbs corrections and entropy using ideal-gas rigid-rotor/harmonic-oscillator statistics at the supplied temperature and pressure. Corrections are relative to the electronic energy, not atomization or formation values. Imaginary modes above numerical tolerance withhold thermochemical corrections. Low-frequency modes can make harmonic entropy unreliable; no quasi-harmonic or hindered-rotor correction is included. There are no IR intensities, Raman intensities, empirical frequency scale factors or solvent/crystal contributions. A successful optimization alone does not prove a minimum.
