Hi, everyone
   I just encountered a diffcult problem which has to
optimize the geometry of a organic anion molecules in
aqueous solution. I've tested Gaussian03 and found the
optimization can not get converged at all. Could you
recommend a method or program to finish the job? Thank
you.

You can use blender (an open source 3D modelling and animation tool):
http://www.blender3d.org/cms/Home.2.0.html
to import a VRML file and then to export it as DXF.

How do you treat the solution ? By a continuum model ?
Then you should try ADF, which has COSMO as solvation model,
and which in my experience converges the geometry of organic
anions in aqueous solution perfectly; see

Dear collegue,
The B version of Gaussian 03 has a bug in the energy gradients
of the PCM method, if core pseudo potentials are used, with d components
and higher. This bug is fixed in the C version.
This implies that the B version cannot optimise geometries of molecules 
in solution,
if they contain heavy metals and if you absolutely need a core pseudo 
for them.
Is it your case?
Bes wishes,
PA.

    Thank you very much for responding to my query. I had given only some
part of our molecule just to show how our input file look like. The
molecule is a bigger one. We would like to get an orbital diagram like
the one I attached here. It is also found that when I put coordinate
values from Gaussian log output as the input for CACAO, I am getting
very higher difference in MO energy values between those software
outputs. Hope you can help us in this regard.

With regards,

Raji Stephen

Hi all,

Could you advise me how to get a coordinate set (cartesian or Z-matrix) 
for a relaxed PES scan?
Gaussian 98 prints optimized parameters after a stationary point is 
found, but I want to extract an optimized structure at each point.

Thanks,

Genzo

Dear researchers,

We would like to announce the release of an update to the PDBbind
database, i.e. version 2003. The PDBbind database, publicly accessible
at http://www.pdbbind.org/, is constructed to provide a collection of
binding affinity data for the protein-ligand complexes in the Protein
Data Bank (PDB). This updated version has binding affinity data (Kd, Ki,
& IC50) for over 1,700 protein-ligand complexes released by PDB before
01/01/2004. Its "refined set", which is compiled particularly for
docking/scoring studies, has a total of 900 protein-ligand complexes.

The PDBbind database is developed in Dr. Shaomeng Wang's group at the
University of Michigan. All of the current enrolled users may still
access this database through their existing accounts. Other researchers
who are interested in this database are welcome to explore it through a
demo account on our web site.

This version has not been released until now mainly due to the delay in
paper preparation/reviewing. Our plan is to update this database annualy
to keep up with the growth of PDB, and we are working very hard on
version 2004 right now. We expect to release version 2004 later this
year.

Best regards,

Renxiao
