A number of different molecule file types use the *.mol extension. You
should know the structural type of the file ( what is the creator/parent
program?), and search accordingly.

Subject: CML (Chemical Markup Language) Update
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed

CML is an Open XML infrastructure which supports molecular information and 
is compliant with current W3C (World Wide Web Consortium) protocols and 
philosophy. CML is designed as an application-independent adapter for 
chemical information. This is to announce a number of new developments. 
(Much of the work is jointly with Henry Rzepa).

(A) Specifications: The W3C released the XML Schema Recommendation last 
year and we have converted the current V1.0 DTD to a schema. This is still 
at a draft stage, but increases the power of the language while simplifying 
some of the syntax. W3C schemas are seen as the main way forward for most 
XML applications and will support a variety of powerful new tools like XML 
forms, XML query, etc. In addition we have developed a core XML language 
(STMML) for representing scientific data (such as data structures (arrays, 
matrices), many data types, scientific units, metadata, etc.). STMML is a 
core part of CML but can be re-used in other applications.

(B) Programming: We have created A W3C DOM (Document Object Model) for CML. 
This forms an Open abstract data model (and API) for those writing 
molecular applications in XML (and other OO approaches such as UML). The 
CML DOM has been developed alongside the Life Sciences Research group 
specification for small molecules for the Object Management Group. We have 
also created SAX2-based modules for CML. These interfaces are available 
under Open Source license for any developers.

(C). Data: We are working closely with the National Cancer Institute (NCI) 
who are converting their database to CML.

(D) CML is now an integral part of several Open Source projects such as 
OpenBabel, JMOL, JChemPaint and XDrawChem (all on http://www.sourceforge.net)

(E) A new resource has been set up at Source Forge, the Open Source 
repository. Project Page: http://cml.sourceforge.net; Downloads and CVS 
repository at http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/cml. There is much 
supporting material including examples and  Java. Javascript, and XSLT 
toolkits. We have developed a C++ SAX2-like parser for OpenBabel: 
http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/openbabel

(F) SELFML: The SELF project (Prof. Henry Kehiaian, Paris) has created an 
ontology for physicochemical data (especially properties of molecules and 
mixtures of molecules). SELFML is the XML incarnation of SELF and supports 
the data and the specifications (dictionary entries).  SELFML interoperates 
with CML and can therefore support collections of molecular properties 
(catalogues, dictionaries, etc.)

(G) CML is being extended to support reactions and computational chemistry. 
We are starting to convert codes (initially Open Source such as MOPAC and 
GROMACS) to read and write XML, and to develop the XML ontologies 
required.  Offers of collaboration welcomed :-)

I need to clarify this email:

In the _dissociation_ of a diatomic molecule, there is sometimes a
maximum along the dissociation coordinate. I am observing this in a
relaxed PES scan of a tetra-atomic dissociation. The dissociation goes
to the proper, neutral fragments. The maximum, and all points beyond,
have only one negative frequency, but I cannot rationalize the drop
after the maximum.

Dear AutoDock users,

Try our program VEGA (http://users.unimi.it/~ddl): indeed VEGA is able to
convert a lot of file formats in pdbq format  and it runs under several O.S.
with or without graphical engine

Best regards

It can be evaluated for systems with either planar interfaces or for a
droplet; there's a brief description for droplets in the "Computer
Simulation of Liquids" book by Allen & Tildesley (pp. 289-291).

You can find info on the CHARMM implementation and application to planar
interfaces (water/octane, bilayers) in the following refs:

An oriented ensemble (planar interfaces in XY plane) termed NPAT can be
used to evaluate the surface tension directly from the diagonal of the
pressure tensor as

	gamma = ( Pzz - (Pxx+Pyy)/2 )/2

for a system constructed with 2 planar interfaces.

Dear all

I am trying to do an optimisation of a porphyrin (saddle structure). I
cannot get G98 to recognise any symmetry within the molecule, I have used
iop(2/17=1).
the start of the output file says
'This structure is nearly, but not quite of a higher symmetry.
 Consider Symm=Loose if the higher symmetry is desired.'

Does anyone have any other ideas on how to get any symmetry?

the z-matrix is

Hello all,

Earlier in the week we ran into the infamous 2GB file limit with G98 
on Linux (i686).  I've searched the G98 site and the CCL archive, 
and while it's clear that the kernel and libc both support 64-bit file 
positions, it's much less clear how to get G98 to use them.  Does 
this mean writing a replacement FORTRAN IO library?  Or does it 
just mean setting some compile-time flag and rebuilding G98?  Has 
anybody conquered this problem?  Is there *any* way other than 
just splitting our rwf files, something that hasn't worked too well for 
us?

Thanks bunches,
Matt Zwier

Dear CCL,

1) How can I scan a potential energy surface along a vibrational normal
mode with Gaussian or another molecular electronic structure program
automatically ?

2) How can I increase the precision of the normal modes printed with
Gaussian ?

The answer to these questions are probably already in the CCL archive,
but I cut not find them quickly.

Thank you very much.

Hi,

I would look at the change in bond distances between
the four atoms for a clue.  You would have to consider
the mixing of higher (diabatic) states if this were
in fact the dissociation of a diatomic molecule (which
I guess it isn't actually).

Hi Jens,

you might try POLYRATE. It is a program
(designed by Prof. Joel Bowman and others) to
calculate vibrational frequencies and more by
going beyond the harmonic oscillator approximation.

Add the HPFREQ option to the FREQ command.
You can find a very thorough documentation of
G98 at:
http://www.gaussian.com/techinfo.htm

Does G98 rebuild on recent Linux distribution helps?  It should[1] work
without any additional compile- or run-time flags.

Footnotes: 
[1]  but not necessary it would :) :(

I think all people usually split files when use the 32-bit version of G98.
There is another problem also, namely the 16Gb limit, which is more complex because
indexes of arrays in G98 have INTEGER*4 type and can't address more than 8*2^32=16Gb data.
The way, I guess, to avoid this problem is to recompile G98 after changing type of integer
variables in sources. I think it should be no so difficult,
just replace all INTEGER and INTEGER*4 to INTEGER*8.
I don't know exactly whether the PGF compiler, usually used for compiling the G98,
support such integer type, but I sure that it must.
IFC, for example, can use INTEGER*8.
So, to solve both these problems you should replace 32-bit integers to 64-bit one at least.

Best regards,
          Andrew
