Subject: ANNOUNCEMENT: JChemPaint 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

It is our pleasure to announce the release 1.0 of JChemPaint. 

JChemPaint is a Java 2 program for drawing 2D chemical structures like
those found in most chemistry textbooks. The program is developed as an
Open Source Project and released under GNU Lesser General Public License
(LGPL). Since written in Java, the program should run under Win32,
Linux, 
Solaris, AIX and all others OS's for which Java 2 is available.

JChemPaint is developed by Christop Steinbeck, Egon Willighagen, Martin
Schild, Stefan Krause and others and hosted by SourceForge
(http://jchempaint.sourceforge.net and
http://sourceforge.net/projects/jchempaint)

Version 1.0 is a feature-freeze and bug-fix release. 
We are now going to move JChemPaint to a new base library, the Chemistry
Development Kit (CDK).
The CDK (http://compchem.sourceforge.net) is a rewrite of the old
compchem library
with clear object-oriented design and full documentation.

Changes in version 1.0:
- bugfixes for: #127756, #131892, #131898 and #128070
- New features in version 0.8:
- Clean up of multiple molecules in one document now works.
- Colouring of substructures.
- Now possible to assign charges to atoms. 
- Drawing of implicit hydrogens. 
- Structures can now be accompanied with some properties: Generator,
Software, CAS-number and generation date.
- Insert SMILES functionality (By entering them in a pop-up window)
- Help functionality with complete user manual.
- Greatly improved website
- Export filter for SVG. 
- Print capabilities.

For those who just want to run the program, we recommend the binary
version.

More information as well as a download option can be found on
http://jchempaint.sourceforge.net. JChemPaint is associated with the
OpenScience
project (www.openscience.org) and the 3D molecular viewer Jmol
(http://www.openscience.org/jmol/), both initiated  by Dan Gezelter at
the University of Notre Dame (http://www.nd.edu/~gezelter/) 

We would be happy to get some feedback from people who have downloaded
and tested the program. Also people who want to join the development of 
JChemPaint or want to contribute code are welcome.

Subject: Paramagnetically shifted 1H NMR spectra

Dear Netters,

We did not succeeded to calculate paramagnetically shifted 1H NMR spectrum
of biliverdin molecule CuOEB using Gaussian 98 (see experimental data in
J. Am. Chem.Soc., vol. 115, p. 12206 (1993)).

We have optimized geometry of TeMeSilane molecule and obtained from NMR
calculation the Isotropic Shielding values for H atoms (in ppm):

   H    Isotropic =    31.9027   Anisotropy =     9.6413
   XX=    29.4642   YX=     0.2951   ZX=    -0.7329
   XY=     0.4642   YY=    32.9871   ZY=    -5.1492
   XZ=    -0.8947   YZ=    -5.1015   ZZ=    33.2567
   Eigenvalues:    27.9348    29.4430    38.3302

We have used Density Functional Theory B3PW91/6-311G**

We have taken geometry of CuOEB from X-Ray experiment.
Our B3PW91\6-311G** calculated CuOEB NMR  Hm shielding values (ppm):
 23  H    Isotropic =    28.4781   Anisotropy =    10.0683
   XX=    24.0637   YX=    -1.2135   ZX=     -.8179
   XY=     -.0906   YY=    35.1141   ZY=    -2.2717
   XZ=     9.0739   YZ=     1.6948   ZZ=    26.2566
   Eigenvalues:    20.8808    29.3633    35.1904

 60  H    Isotropic =    27.5216   Anisotropy =    12.3793
   XX=    22.4061   YX=     2.7621   ZX=    -1.0495
   XY=     -.3733   YY=    35.4454   ZY=     2.7019
   XZ=    10.0293   YZ=    -6.4196   ZZ=    24.7134
   Eigenvalues:    18.6646    28.1258    35.7745

 and shielding Hm' value:
24  H    Isotropic =    25.8868   Anisotropy =    16.3237
   XX=    36.5750   YX=     -.6396   ZX=     4.7813
   XY=     -.0379   YY=    23.9614   ZY=      .1694
   XZ=     -.9100   YZ=     2.3766   ZZ=    17.1241
   Eigenvalues:    16.7005    24.1907    36.7693

It means that our calculated chemical shifts for Hm and Hm' are equal to
few ppm while CuOEB experimental NMR chemical shift values for Hm and Hm' in
J. Am. Chem.Soc., vol 115, p. 12206 are equal approximately to 135 ppm and
-100 ppm.

Why so badly we have calculated paramagnetically shifted 1H NMR spectrum
for CuOEB molecule?
Maybe GAUSSIAN is not able to calculate paramagnetically shifted 1H NMR
spectra?
Which program is suitable for calculations of paramagnetically shifted 1H
NMR spectra?

Thanking your in advance.
With best regards, Arvydas Tamulis & Jelena Tamuliene
