In page 1701, second column, the last two sentences starting with "The setup of non-redundant...", should read:

The setup of non-redundant internal coordinates and the Hessian transformation between different coordinate systems (eqn. (1)) was effected using Pulay's INTC alogorithm.14

        F1 = UT·FU                             (1)

     U = BB2T·(BB2T)−1                (2)

Here F1 is the Hessian (force constant) matrix expressed in coordinate system 1; F2 is the Hessian matrix expressed in coordinate system 2. B1 and B2 are the corresponding B matrices, respectively.15,16
