Well I would recommend mine, wouldn't I ?  "Data Analysis for 
Chemists; Application to QSAR and chemical product design" Oxford 
University Press,1995, ISBN  0 19 855728 0.

I can e-mail a contents list if you're interested.

Cheers,

		Dave.

I recently received notification from a referee that split level B3LYP
6-311G(2d,p) // HF 6-31G* calculations are inappropriate for accurate
electronic structure calculations. The reason given was that B3LYP
optimizations give better geometries (HF was used in our work due to time
constraints), but also that HF gives better electronic structure data. The
first point had already been considered but does anyone know what the second
could be referring to as I have never come accross this in the literature.
Many thanks for your help,

Hello,everyone,

Thank you your suggestions on my previous questions.In fact I focused on the calculation on pKa value of some organic acid.I got some questions about the state involved in PCM model.Please give me some assistance.The questions followed as:

1. when we use PCM model to calculate the solvation energy, i.e. the free energy change of the reaction A (gas) ид A(solution).

What is the state of A (gas)?What is the state of A (solution)?I guess 1 atm, 298K in gas and 1Mol/L,298K in solution.Right?

2.It is not possible to find a 1 mol/L DMSO solution in DMSO. So what does PCM provide us when calculating the solvation energy of DMSO in DMSO?and also water in water? 

3.Does the above solvation( DMSO solution in DMSO) energy equal to the vaporization energy? i.e the free energy change of the following equation: H2O (liquid, 298K, 1atm(outside pressure)) ид H2O (1 atm(gas pressure), 298K)?

4.What is the reaction equation for the solvation energy of DMSO (the state of every species in the equation?)?

Thank you very much in advance.

Dear CCL members,

I ask your indulgence for the broadcast nature of this meeting
notice of local interest.

The Mid-Atlantic Computational Chemistry (MACC) discussion group
will be holding its next meeting on Thursday, March 20-th from
6-10 pm at the Kresge Auditorium (Room 120 Frick) at Princeton
University.

Prof. Johann Gasteiger from the University of Erlangen-Nurnberg
will be speaking on "Multidimensional explorations into biochemical
pathways".

The meeting will start with social hour and pizza at 6 pm, followed
by the seminar at 7 pm. Please RSVP by e-mail to agrafiotis@3dp.com.

For more information on Prof. Gasteiger's research, please visit

Highly recommended (from one who, not too long ago, did not know much about
it).

Hi CCLers,

Is there a good organic and/or pharmacophoric fragment library somewhere

I can download?

Thanks a lot,
