Welcome to the field!

MM3/MM4 program is not free, it cost about $700 for academic use
You can get it from us or from QCPE. HyperChem is not free either. you
can try their web site at http://www.hyper.com and they may have a free
beta version. Amber is sold by Oxford Molecular Group. It cost about
$1000 a few years ago.

We have a product AccuModel which use the MM3 force field. It cost 
$399 for academic use.  An 30 day evaluation copy can be downloaded from
our web site at http://www.microsimulations.com.

Good luck to your research!

Hi, there, thank you all for your attention, especially thank Alan and 
Karl for their replies.
Maybe I did not make myself clear. I am studying the oxidation reaction
of para-substituted phenyl methyl sulfides and the corresponding
sulfoxides by permanganate-zinc chloride complex (MnO4- ZnCl2). I am using
ab initio method (gaussian 94) to calculate the HOMO of surfur compounds
and the LUMO energy of the oxidant. The energy gap between the LUMO of the
oxidant and the HOMO of the reductant (sulfur compound) correlate well
with the free energy of activation obtained experimentally, i.e. as the
substituents change from methoxy to methyl, to hydrogen, to fluoro, to
chloro, to nitro the HOMO gets lower and the energy gap gets larger and
free energy of activation becomes higher. This obervation agrees with the
Frontier Molecular Orbital Theory. However, somebody argues that the
calculation does not take entropy effect into consideration so the energy
gap should correlate well with the enthalpy of activation rather than with
the free energy of activation. This is why I need to know if the
calculated HOMO or LUMO energy has anything to do with entropy. All
compounds are in ground states and LAN2DZ basis set is used for the
oxidant complex and the 6-31G(d) is used for sulfur compounds.
Any comment is greatly appreciated. Thank you for your help.

Hi there...

This is a little off the usual scope of theis list, but I was wondering 
if anyone knew of or have any programs that can convert from the autodesk 
flc/fli animation format to one which is compatible with Powerpoint (ie 
avi, cam etc).

This program is needed urgently, and if anyone has one, please can they 
contact me as soon as possible.

Any replies will be much appreciated.
