Hi all

This a synthesis question.  I've done some computations and converted a 
methyl group into a t-butyl group with no problem.

My question is how can a methyl group be converted synthetically into a 
t-butyl group?  If anyone out there knows how, including reagents,
conditions etc. please let me know.

Thank you in advance,
Richard

Dear CCl users:

    I am a newbie to Autodock and I want to know if we
can prepare a system for Autodock job without using
InsightII or Sybyl. Because both of them are commercial and
I do not have access to them. I have read a notes about using
InsightII to prepare system for Autodock job such as measuring
the dimension of the grid or coordinates of ligand pesudo atoms.
I have access to ADT but I am not sure ADT can do the same job.
Any response will be highly appreciated! I also send this message
to ADL list, and I will try to summarize the responses here.
Thanks in advance.


Cheers

Hi to everyone
 
Iam currently interested in studing the Bonding, structure and Non Linear
Properties of Zn(N) Clusters N=1-20. I have two articles which describe 
the nature of bonding in Zn(N) N=1-20 but i would like to know if there is
something more on Bonding and on  NLO properties  of these structures as well.  Is there anyone who is getting involved on these topics and could offer literature survey to me.
 
Thanks in advance for every help

Dear CCL
I've been usin autodock for plenty of time. At the moment I'm trying to
create a .gpf file on a SGI machine and it seems that the program doesn't=

assign the right paramaters (all the parameters are set to 0). I tryed to=

change the receptor and the ligand but everything went the same. Moreover=
,
the same ligand and receptor does not give any problems on other machine.=

Maybe is a problem of configuration even if I've always run autodock on
this machine. I'm attatching the .gpf file to see if you can help me to
solve my problem.
Thanks in advance
Best regards
Sandro

Hi,

I've done the NMR calculation with SpinSpin option for propene. The =
chemical shifts of the Hs on methyl are slightly different, and the =
coupling constants including them are also different. My question is how =
I can average them. Namely, how can I compare those values with the =
experiment. Thanks in advance.

Dear All,

I am trying to calculate a biomolecule using QM/MM in c29b2, I need at 
least 3 link atoms. I don't know if it is ok with multiple link atoms 
since all of the examples only have one link atom. My calculation could be 
run but if I use the keyword energy which try to print the energy with QM 
calculation, it would be failed by segametational fault. Is that because 
my QM atoms are too much or the script what I wrote is not ok?

This is the QM/MM calcultion script in my calculation

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
nbonds -
atom shift vswitch eps 1.0 -
cutnb 999.0 ctofnb 998.0 ctonnb 997.0 e14fac 1.0

addl qqh1 pwdm A48 c pwdm A48 c
addl qqh2 pwdf A111 c pwdf A111 c
addl qqh3 pwdl A300 c pwdl A300 c

defind qmset sele segi pwdm .or. segi pwdf .or. segi pwdl end 

quan sele qmset end am1
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And I want to know if it is all right that I just give the parameters for 
qqh atom like the example files. If it is not right, where I can find the 
correct parameters. Or can I find a more complex example of QM/MM than 
examples?

I'll appreciate your any kind help,

Yours sincerely,

Holly

Hi!

I am starting my project on bond structure of semiconductors synthesised with hydrothermal method. All these semiconductors contains amine, group IV, V, IV elements and some transitional metals to make the frame structure.
By trying castep within material studio, we found that the calculation can not converge. So, I wonder with what software or with which method can I carry out the study. As I am new to this field, I do hope that you would not mind giving me some handon instructions.

Thank you in advance for your future help!

Sincerely yours

Xin, Liu

Dear all,

Have you any ROUGH idea about the accuracy of Gibbs free energy =
calculated by the following solvation models (i.e. compared with =
experimental values)?=20
1. Born model (assumed an ion as a sphere)
2. Kirkwood/Onsager reaction field model (assumed a molecule as a =
sphere; not self-consistent reaction field; A.R. Leach, Molecular =
Modelling Principles and Applications, 2nd editon, Ch11, p.594-595)
3. Onsager self-consistent reaction field model (assumed a molecule as a =
sphere)
4. Pierotti energy of creation of cavity (assumed a molecule as a =
sphere; Chem. Rev. 76:717-726)
5. dispersive-repulsive interaction using LJ potential from Pierotti =
(assumed a molecule as a sphere; Chem. Rev. 76:717-726)

I know the Gibbs free energy of solvation ought to equal to G(Born) + =
G(Kirkwood/Onsage) + G(cavity) + G(dis-rep).  Do you know any paper test =
the accuracy of this whole model when the molecule is assumed to be a =
sphere?

If you know any idea of one of them, I also welcome.=20

Thank you for your help and attention.

Best regards,

Patrick

Hi  CClers:

         I have just started using Autodock3 and don`t have an extensive
background of docking theory.could someone please clarify some of
my doubts.
1) what is the criteria for docking is it min energy or is it min RMSD??
2) If we want to calculate the RMSD from a reference file what should be
the format of the input reference file and can ADT(Autodock tool kit) =
create it..or can we get it from PDB.
3) also can any one suggest some reference for the Directional H-bond
implementation  in autogrid based on Goodford or explain the
theory behind the process.

If anyone can help me I would be highly obliged.

Thank You

Sincerely,

Ankit

Hi Connie,

This message generaly occurs when a geometry optimization has not succeeded (in
your case, forces are not yet converged)
after the maximum step number allowed by the program has been reached. This is
what occured there.

You can just  change the number of steps allowed for your geometry optimization,
but not more than 100, bye keyword : opt=(maxcyc=N)
where N is the number of steps but for such a small molecule the reason can be
different.
In fact I rather think it's a problem of symmetry : the charged specy has perhaps
not the same symmetry as the structure you give in input (I think
it's a D6h neutral benzene-like strucutre).
So, the keyword "nosymm" could help the calculation to succeed.

..Hope this will help you

Yohann

Hi all

I didn't get a satisfactory answer, so I'll try again. 

I would like to replace an -O-C(CH3)2-COOH group with an 
-O-C(C(CH3)3))2-COOH group.  I know it can be done, because the group 
that is on the molecule now replaced a methyl group. In other words, the 
molecule I have is a derivative of a previously made one.  I can't say 
more than this about my molecule.  Those of you that work for a company 
will understand this.

Richard,

Without knowing the structure it cannot be said. Is the Me group bonded to C? Or to N or
O? Is it an ester? An enolate? etc etc... there are a huge number of possibilities.

I have several Opterons running RHEL 3 WS for AMD64, and I run a mix of 32 
and 64bit apps on them with no problem.  For commercial codes, this 
includes Matlab (32bit) and LS-DYNA (I've run both 32 and 64bit versions 
of this).  It just works, and the chips are quite fast.

This depends entirely on the details of the molecule, and the current
synthetic scheme being used for it.  In some cases, the reagent initially
containing the methyl is also available (or easily synthesized) with a
t-butyl, and the alternate synthesis may be straightforward (although
differences in reactivity can still lead to difficulties).  However, in
other cases the synthetic stragety must be changed to make the
substitution.  In any case, it's not at all straightforward to convert
a methyl to a t-butyl in the context of a larger molecule, and thus the
conversion should be done early on in the synthetic process.
