hallo everybody

does anybody know how to force G98 to print out the partially optimized
parameters during a Z-matrix geometry optimization, for every optimization
step, and not only at the end of the converged optimization?

....just trying to save a Z-matrix

                            Program announcement
  
   
"MULTIMODE"; a code to obtain accurate rovibrational energy levels for many-mode molecules by:
   
S. Carter,  39, Grove Hill, Caversham, Reading RG4 8PS, UK
J.M. Bowman,  Department of Chemistry, Emory University, Atlanta GA 30322, USA
and contributions from N.C. Handy,   Department of Chemistry, Lensfield Road, 
Cambridge CB2 1EW, UK
   
   "MULTIMODE" is a near-variational procedure for the calculation of
   rovibrational energies of polatomic molecules, adsorbates and clusters.
   The method is based on the Watson normal coordinate hamiltonian for
   non-linear molecules, and proceeds via vibrational SCF and rovibrational
   CI steps.  The complete hamiltonian is used at all times, but approximations
   are made in order to integrate the potential and coriolis terms.  These terms
   are included as N-mode expansions in the normal coordinates, but are 
   truncated at the 4-mode terms.  It has been demonstrated that higher terms
   are insignificant compared with the inaccuracies in the potential itself.
   The method has been thoroughly tested for a variety of  triatomic and
   tetraatomic molecules and, in particular, against exact variational results
   for H2CS (6 modes, ref. 1) and more recently it has been applied to 
   CH4 (9 modes, ref. 2).  In both cases, excellent convergence
   has been achieved for all of the low-lying vibrational levels.
   
  "MULTIMODE" can be used in less accurate calculations, for example at the SCF
  level alone, or in SCF-CI calculations, where specified numbers of vibrational
  (non-orthogonal) SCF functions are used in a vibrational CI basis.   These
  methods also allow for an adiabatic rotation scheme, which gives reasonable
  values for rotational constants, in particular.
   
  "MULTIMODE" is currently being extended to include the Watson 
  hamiltonian for linear molecules, and also to include the Miller-Adams-Handy
  Reaction Path hamiltonian in order to describe a single large-amplitude
  coordinate, for example the torsion in H2O2.  This will widen the scope of
  molecules that can be handled.

Dear CCL subscribers,

We've been using AutoDock 3.0 to do enzyme-ligand docking simulations with
compounds which contain aromatic substituants (such as 3-phenylpropyl
groups).  We suspect that weak  "amino-aromatic" and "aromatic-aromatic"
hydrogen-bonds are important in the binding of these compounds to the active
site of our enzyme.

Since the pi-faces of aromatic substituants in the ligand aren't directly
associated with an individual atom, it's difficult to see how AutoDock can
be made to understand the location and directionality between them and
hydrogen-N(sp2) donors in the active site.

Has anyone figured out a way to get AutoDock to include these types of
non-classical hydrogen-bonds in it's H-bond calculations?

Thanks very much for any help you can provide us with...

Sincerely,

Jerry Baker     jfbaker@netzero.net

  A few examples of the new features are as follows:

  We offer the full set of Pentium/Pentium Pro/Pentium II/Pentium III-
optimized native Linux SMP-aware PC GAMESS ELF binaries as a part of the PC
GAMESS distribution.
  New Pentium Pro/Pentium II/Pentium III-optimized OS/2-based SMP & JFS -
aware binaries are now available.
  Large files are supported via transparent file splitting on all 32-bit file
systems imposing 2 or 4 GB limit on the maximum file size.

hallo everybody.
I have a problem with the use of  the option MaxCycle in Gaussian.

if I want to do a simple optimization



#P  HF/STO-3G  Opt=Z-matrix  gfinput    IOP(6/7=3)



everything works until I include MaxCycle=5

then the computation stops due to a syntax error in the route section.
Does anybody know of incompatibilities with the keywords I used?  Ever had similar troubles?
thanks in anticipation

Dear Colleagues,

I am pretty new to the recent applications of statistical thermodynamics, so
excuse my simple question.

Could anyone point me to some references or ideas, how to construct a
partition function for organometallic complexes in solid and gas form? The
complexes are generally 1,3-diketonates and contain transition metals like
copper or cobalt. How do I model intermolecular interactions? Maybe
interesting: The bond character in these complexes is nearly covalent, not
ionic.

Regards,

Rolf Claessen

Angelo,
	Assuming that its my mail-reader that is adding 3D's to your
route card, are youtrying to limit the number of scf cycles or
optimisation cycles?  These can be controlled via the scfcyc and
optcyc directives respectively.

To increase SCF cycle (default is 65 in general), use scfcyc=n or iop(5/7=n)
where n is the number of scf iteration steps.
For geom optimization use, optcyc=n

Dear Rachelle,

At one time in QUANTA we had worked out all of the porphyrin related groups.
As I recall it was necessary to explicitly detemine the correct single, 
double,  and resonant bonds as shown in either Metzler or similar textbooks.
You use the Chemnote facility for this. You may need to let the initial
geometry relax a little to get a flattened ring system. Just use several
cycles of minimization. At the time that we completed that parameter project
there were no "missing parameters". If you have trouble call the MSI support
line again.
