Hello ccl'ers,
I need help desperately.
I have collected a weak set of crystallographic data for one of my 
compounds (suspected Al complex with calix(4)arene), however I am 
having difficulty in trying to solve the structure.
I have used SHELXS and MULTAN, both to no avail.
I have also pulled out D flagged hkl's in desperation, again to no 
avail.
Does anyone have any ideas???

Hi All,

    I would like to know if someone has any experience with desktop
processors other than Intel ones, I mean, AMD-K6 or Cyrix 6x86. What are the
advantages or disadvantages of these processors compared with Pentium or
Pentuim II processors? (At their home pages, the AMD and Cyrix processors
are always comparable to Intel ones.)

    Thanks very much,

            Gustavo Seabra

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit


                Dear collegues!
       We study electronic properties in a range of
perfluorstilbens - C6H5-(CF2=CF2)n-C6H5 by means of
polarography  and  half-empyrical quantum chemistry
methods such as PM3. In that range of fluor substi-
tuted stilbens the correlation  bitwin  numbers  of
-CF2=CF2- bridges (between two benzene cycles)  and
value of  E(homo)-E(lumo)  was observed, the latter
value  being  calculated  using  RHF/PM3  method in
HYPERCHEM 4 (Hypercube Inc.) for windows.  Unfortu-
nately we can't acquire any good correlation  using
the same method in GAUSSIAN-94.  We  took  Z-Matrix
>from hyperchem optimized geometry for each substan-
ce  translated  it  to  input file for GAUSSIAN-94,
specifing in it neccesarible route section and then
perform geometry optimization in GAUSSIAN-94.
            Route section example:
# RHF/PM3 Guess=Huckel FOpt=(Z-Matrix, VTight)
# Pop=Reg SCF(Conver=10)
       In addition to it the final optimized geomet-
ries for the same substance in Hyperchem  and  Gaus-
sian is quite different from one another. The Hyper-
chem obtained final geometry  is  absolutely  planar
for all members of represented range  (n=1-6)  while
Gaussian obtained geometry is planar only for  C6H5-
CF2=CF2-C6H5 (n=1). Another  molecules  were twisted
around axis that combines centres of benzene cycles.
       Please  explain me why  this  phenomena  take
place?  If  you need in more substantial information
let me know about it.
Thank you.

Sincerely Yours D. Platonov.

Dear CCLers,


	Could someone possibly send us any files and/or references that
include semi-empirical or ab initio calculated molecular structures of AZT
and its derivatives (ddI, ddC, etc)? 
	We intend to apply a new methodology developed by our group to try
to explain the biological activity of such compounds. The calculated
sctructure would save us precious time.
	Thanks in advance for your help,

I know, there are a lot of troubles with Cyrix 6x86. A large
ammount of programs wouldn't like to run. 
(I didn't hear anything wrong about AMD-K6.)

Subject: HARTREE-FOCK HCORE OPERATOR--QUESTION



1998  March 27


Hello,

In the Hartree-Fock treatment the energy of an atom or molecule is

                  E = 2 SIGMA H + SIGMA SIGMA (2J - K)

     where        H = Integral psi* H/\core psi dtau

  H/\core is the operator for the energy of an atomic or molecular electron,
ignoring interelectronic repulsions.

  QUESTION:  Why is this operator called H core?  And where did this
  name first appear in the literature?


                    Thanks    E. Lewars

What kind of troubles? Could you be more specific? 
 (i.e. under what operation system and what programs cause a lot of
 the troubles with Cyrix).

We have used Cyrix 200+ CPU to run GAMESS under Linux. No troubles.
It worked without crashes during the whole year.

It should be mentioned that Cyrix is slower in the floating point math.
Intel CPU's usually are working faster, probably due to higher absolute
CPU clock frequency (see a small benchmark table below).

And, of course, Pentium Pro/II are much, much faster.

Nevertheless, according to our experience Cyrix CPUs can be used as
a very good and cheap alternative in the case of "low end" personal 
workstations.

best wishes,
Valentin.

It sort of depends on what you plan to do with the box.  If you are
going to run straight windows 95 then both processors should be
compatable and work with most functionality.  There are exceptions to
this of course and you need to make sure the software you want to run
works on the box.  Get the vendor to make sure your software works
with the chip.  If they won't do that for you then don't buy from
them!  I'd also get it in writting!! :) If you want to run additional
OS software such as Linux then you want to stay with the pentium line.
Cyrix chips have fewer problems with Linux than the AMD but many
people run Linux on all three.  There have been lots of problems
reported with the AMD using Linux (look at the linux news groups).  I
personally would pay the difference to get the pentium based product.

Ricky

Dear CCLers,

a colleague of mine has encountered the following
error/crash message and I was unable to solve her problem.
After several geometry cycles an HF job crashes with:

"Omega: Change in point group or standard orientation".

The full point group, however, did not really change, it is
D3H throughout.
The only difference between the very last and the previous
geometry was in:

    Framework group  D3H[3C2(NNN.B)...

    Framework group  D3H[3C2(B.NNN)...

(The molecule has B-N3 fragments).

Any ideas? what is the significance of NNN.B being changed
into B.NNN ?
Would this affect the largest Abelian subgroup?


Thanks in advance,

Andrei Kutateladze

Hi CCLers

I have been using the windows version of gamess for almost 6 months
now and i  have had no problems. I still see people trying to install
gamess under linux.

Is there a good reason why people are still using gamess under
linux on PC's ? Are there any serious problems or bugs in the  windows
version ?

I guess the only problem will be for people working with
windows95  . They will be limited to 2 Gb   of  disk space but
you can always switch to NT and get over this limitation .
