Hi,

Mol2Mol can do, it has an option to capture coordinates from MOPAC-type output files, and associate the structure with charges or other computed data, with a very little user editing of the original file.
Have a look at 
http://www.compuchem.com/mol2mol    for a general overlook

or  

http://www.klte.hu/~gundat/m2m/    and navigate here to Molfiles -> Z matrix etc

A transition state should have only ONE imaginary frequency. 

It would be odd if a single TS could lead to different products. How would
the TS distinguish between paths to follow. I suspect that attempting to
rationalise some mathematical result will be academic. I doubt if it has any
physio/chemical meaning and is probably just the result of computation.
Simple finding some computational result does not mean anything. Results
should be reconciled with real-world problems.

Subject: CCL:nth-order saddle point, n>1


Dear CCLers,
I wonder what is the chemical/physical meaning of a nth-order
saddle point (n>1)?
That is...for instance, when I get four immaginary frequencies
does it mean that I have to "pass through" four vibrational modes
to arrive to a minimum? (Or to three to get to a transition state?)
Or it simply has nothing to do with it and it is only a mathematical
definition of a saddle point?
Or...?

May I thank you in advance for any help,

What could I use instead?

the reason is that if it is a higher-order TS, there will be another one
with lower energy, and molecules are sharp enough to take that one.

Dear Netters,

A week ago I asked a question regarding existence of reliable automatic
assignment of hydrogen atoms to large proteins with possible structure
verification.

The short answer is NO. There are many powerful and smart graphical
user interfaces but all of them require a posteriori expert's check. You
know well all these brand names therefore I will not repeat them.

I may guess that the best program for adding hydrogen atoms to relatively
small proteins is AMPAC graphical interface. The situation with large
proteins is less favourive. It means, if one decide running QM calculation
on 100 000 atoms protein the guy should be ready to spend few months
on atom by atom manual check. Hope the situation will change in future
but now we can rely on our selves only.

I'm very grateful to Deepak, Jeremy Greenwood, Wayne Steinmetz,
Denys Bashtovyy, and Andy Holder for valuable suggestions.

With kind regards,
Victor.

A question about "higher-order" saddle points:

What happens for functions of the form:
E(r,.theta.) = r**n * sin(k*.theta.) 
for various n and k? 

These should have k ridges and k valleys converging on r=0.  (I should say
at some point that r and .theta. are polar coordinates not cartesian).
Anyway, how does the usual vibrational analysis treat such points?

Subject: CCL:nth-order saddle point, n>1


A transition state should have only ONE imaginary frequency. 

It would be odd if a single TS could lead to different products. How would
the TS distinguish between paths to follow. I suspect that attempting to
rationalise some mathematical result will be academic. I doubt if it has any
physio/chemical meaning and is probably just the result of computation.
Simple finding some computational result does not mean anything. Results
should be reconciled with real-world problems.

Subject: CCL:nth-order saddle point, n>1


Dear CCLers,
I wonder what is the chemical/physical meaning of a nth-order
saddle point (n>1)?
That is...for instance, when I get four immaginary frequencies
does it mean that I have to "pass through" four vibrational modes
to arrive to a minimum? (Or to three to get to a transition state?)
Or it simply has nothing to do with it and it is only a mathematical
definition of a saddle point?
Or...?

May I thank you in advance for any help, 
	Sofia

Subject: convergence failure

Hello, i am running a geometry optimization of an open-shell system with an
unpair electron, that is in principle spin multipliciy = 2.
I try with HF and DFT but the system doesn't converge (I try with 100 cycles).
My starting geometry is experimental (X-ray data).
Any sugerence?.

Hi all

Can anybody point me to some overviews/discussions of the 
docking of ligands that are (or are potentially) covalently 
bound to the receptor site. I am looking at this mainly
but not solely from the view-point of high throughput virtual 
screening.

David

  Wow, are people really doing quantum mechanics on proteins
with 100,000 atoms these days?!  How many cpu hours (months)
does that involve?
