>Hi Mike,

>By the time I had gotten to your original email, I assumed you had received some answers.  It looks like you found the major programs for assistance in retrosynthetic organic synthesis design anyway:
...
>I would add one program to your list.  Bill Jorgenson's CAMEO program is a forward, rather than backward, synthesis tool.  The interface is a little dated, but given the reactants and conditions, it predicts what products you will get, and more usefully helps you focus on reactions and conditions that will give a useful yield.  The site is:

Thanks for all of the suggestions.

The CSC-Scientific Computing, Ltd., Finland is proud to announce the

===================================================================
Minisymposium on
Density Functional Theory
      ( Amsterdam Density Functional Code )
                5-6th October, 2000
			Espoo, FINLAND
"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

Please have a look at http://www.csc.fi/chem/adf_symposium
for the latest information.

The quest speakers of the minisymposium are 

Dr. Bert te Velde and Dr. F. Matthias Bickelhaupt
Scientific Computing and Modeling NV
          Vrije Universiteit, the Netherlands

In addition to invited lectures, the program will include 
a number of oral communications by participants, and a poster session. 

It is our intention to make this symposium a memorable event, 
both scientifically and socially. If you have never been
in Scandinavia, the meeting gives you a perfect opportunity for that. 
Even though the meeting is subtitled  Amsterdam Density Functional Code, 
any presentation or poster describing the application of 
any density functional code besides ADF is more than welcome.

For registration and more information, please visit 
the minisymposium www-pages at 
http://www.csc.fi/chem/adf_symposium

We look forward to meet you in October!

Organizing committee: 
Drs. Maija Lahtela-Kakkonen, Tuija Raaska,
Juha Fagerholm and Juha Haataja

CCL subscribers:

Can I use the Amber molecular mechanics method with the 1995 Cornell force
field to optimize the geometries of anions of stacked DNA bases (A,T,G,C)? 
I'm sure that the method works well for stacked neutral dimers, but I'm
not certain that anions of bases can be well described.

Thank you.
