G3/05 Test Set

The G3/99 test set1 for assessing quantum chemical methods was expanded to include 78 additional energies. This new set is referred to as the G3/05 test set and it has a total of 454.2 The additional 78 MP2(FU)/6-31G* geometries are available here. Also located here are the B3LYP/6-31G(2df,p) geometries for these species.
