This free program is available by downloading from the Interprobe site. www.interprobe.co.uk using anonymous ftp. Get the latest version install_interchem2013_06_25.exe With a SMILES string you can generate either the minimum energy conformer, or choose to generate a set of 512 conformers, and then sort them according to their energies. Full display and analysis tools are provided. There is also provision to generate conformers of selected chirality.

Dissociation like this should prompt you to check that the program found the right state. Regards, Ted Dibble Theodore S.

The ground state is a triplet, can be run with any of your favorite single = determinant methods. There are two low-lying singlet states. The lowest is a singlet delta state. It can be described by a two-determina= nt casscf, or a single determinant with complex orbitals. The latter is an = option in Gaussian, and can be done at the MP2 level. Equilibrium geometry = and singlet-triplet splitting is quite good at this level. The next excited state is a singlet sigma. You need a 2e-2o casscf to descr= ice this.

Just to clarify the recent rant on O2.
The ground state is a triplet, can be run with any of your favorite si= ngle determinant methods.
There are two low-lying singlet states.
The lowest is a singlet delta state. It can be described by a two-dete= rminant casscf, or a single determinant with complex orbitals. The latter i= s an option in Gaussian, and can be done at the MP2 level. Equilibrium geom= etry and singlet-triplet splitting is quite good at this level.
The next excited state is a singlet sigma. You need a 2e-2o casscf to = descrice this.
These are low-lying valence states and basis set requirements are as u= sual for 'ground state' systems.
Specifying a singlet (real orbital) determinant will get you a mixture= of the singlet delta and sigma state. Go figure how relevant that is for y= our application.

Could someone add any insight to this issue? Why can't I optimize dioxygen,= which is such a simple molecule? Can a specific keyword help this problem?=

Hi All,

I'm just curious about what the best way is to check the latest papers.= For instance, I want to see the
most recent issues and the ASAP papers in the major journals. I normally vi= sit the journal websites one
by one, but is there any better way to do it?

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Best wishes,
