Band heights: not computed for this molecule yet (no dipole derivatives); positions only. Compared with the cheap Hessian (B3LYP, analytic): frequency rms 23.7 cm⁻¹.

Harmonic frequencies at the cheap level (deck v1: B3LYP and ωB97X, 6-31G*, at the B3LYP geometry)

48 vibrational modes; imaginary modes negative. Shift = ωB97X − B3LYP.

Both functionals are drawn in the anchor chart above; the table lists the values of the corpus.
