Hi Errol,

Thank you for you reply. That is what I mean. And for the energy of
H+, can I simply do a single point calculation of H+?

=================Original message text===============
Hello,

You mean deltaE for the reaction BH --> B- + H+  , where BH is imidazole 
coordinated to Zn++?
You calculate the energy of the optimized structure BH, and the energy 
of the optimized B-, and take the difference in E of the of thr reactant 
and the products. The level of the calc may be mnportant, so work your 
way up.

Dear CCLers,

I try to make a compilation in a Linux operating system (Mandrake 9.1=
),=20
I can compil it with the M.linux.src I find in the UHBD web, but the =
executable I product is not correct...

Have you ever got a correct makefile for linux operating system ???

Best regards,=20

I haven't done synthetic organic chemistry in a while, but it would be a remarkable reaction if you could either:
(1) directly replace the -CH3 groups attached to carbon with -tBu groups, or
(2) methylate all the hydrogens of the -CH3 groups to give -tBu groups.

This does leave one alternative, which is to
(3) replace the entire -O-C(CH3)2-COOH group with the desired -O-C(tBu)2-COOH group by hydrolysis and reetherification.

To reetherify, you'd need a (tBu)2C[+]COOH cation or the equivalent--perhaps one could be derived from the cyanohydrin of (tBu)2CO ??

Hope this helps.

Hi
This is not at all straightforward. In real life you cannot simply exchange a C-methyl
like this to a t-butyl. It must be done in an earlier phase, and very probably you cannot
find a ready-tailored side chain like this. Contact with the chemists originally
synthesized the compound or check the literature.

Dear CCLers,

I have carried out the following frequency calculation in G98w without
problems. But on using G03 on the same computer I get the following error.
Any suggestions would be extremely welcome and a summary of the replies will
appear.

The molecule is optimised and a frequency calculation is performed and then
repeated in a second job which scales the frequencies at 298K The 2 lines I
use to perform this second job are:-

# freq=(noraman,readiso,readfc) ub3lyp/6-31+g(d) geom=Allcheck
 
298.15 1.0 0.9806
end of job file

The edited result from G03 is shown below.

 Recover connectivity data from disk.
  WANTED A FLOATING POINT NUMBER AS INPUT.
  FOUND A STRING AS INPUT.
 Atom number 3, atomic number 1: [1]
