Dear colleagues,
I have calculated the UV-visible absorption spectrum of an organic (conjugated) molecule and its cation, both in solution in water.
I have used TDDFT and B3LYP. 

The spectrum of the neutral fits rather well with the measured spectrum.
The spectrum of the cation has not been measured, but I suspect that my calculated spectrum is poor, because of a large spin contamination in the excited states, and also because of a (weak) absorption at 2000 nm, due to a flip flop of beta spinorbitals.

Is TDDFT doubtfull for organic cations, or B3LYP?
Is there articles on this issue?
Many thanks in advance,

Please use LC-DFT (for example- LC-BLYP) for the TDDFT computation.
B3LYP discourages.

Friends, I want to calculate the interaction of some protein fragments with
one or two biomolecules by Density Functional Theory and  MM/QM methods.
Let the protein  fragment are  Ala 321, Met 274, and Asp 272 have been used
as reaction center. Now how can I draw the ribbon structure creating the
link between the amino acids (link between Ala 321with Met 274 and Asp
272)    showing secondary structure for DFT and MM/QM calculation?  Is
there any free software ?
Waiting for your response

Dear Pierre,
I have investigated spectra of conjugated radicals with hybrid functionals
and the results looked always reasonable. I found spin contamination mainly
for alpha excitations and very little for beta. I am enclosing some
references:

For a lot of these sorts of thing, I use the simple perl script below.
This parses ATOM/HETATM cards, allowing you to make any modifcations you want,
then writes them back out.  Records other than ATOM/HETATM are passed through
unchanged.

This is especially useful for "one-off" conversions, or unusual changes that
would not pre-programmed in other packages (e.g. the need to change residue
numbers, add TER cards, put some other info into the b-factor column,
etc.etc.)

Reads a pdb file on stdin, writes out the modified version on stdout.

YMMV...dave case

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/env perl -n
#
#   first, read in a pdb file line and unpack
#

if( $_ =~ /^ATOM|^HETATM/){

( $label $atno, $atname, $alt, $resname, $chainId, $resno, $iCode,
      $x, $y, $z, $occ, $bfact, $element, $charge ) =
    unpack("a6 x a4 x a4 a a3 x a a4 a x3 a8 a8 a8 a6 a6 x10 a2 a2",$_);

#
#  do modifications necessary here:
#

#
#  write back out
#
printf 
"%6s %4s %-4s%1s%3s %1s%4s%1s   %8.3f%8.3f%8.3f%6.2f%6.2f          %2s%2s\n",
      $label, $atno,$atname,$alt, $resname,$chainId, $resno, $iCode,
        $x,$y,$z, $occ, $bfact, $element, $charge;

} else {
   print;
}

Sir, Is there any free software for drawing of ribbon structure of protein
for DFT and QM/MM study using AMBER/ othe quantum mechanical calculation?
Is there any free software?

Dear CCL community,
I have been searching for a conformer generator program that can handle acyclic compounds (none of my molecules have flexible rings, yet). I have already tested a few programs, and so far, none has worked to my satisfaction. The program I am looking for should obey some requirements. The requirements are:
	1) The program should use the RMSD of the coordinates to check for equivalent conformers. The first program that I tested employed only the energy to differentiate conformers and was unable to differentiate non-superimposable conformers that happen to have the same energy.
	2) I am not overly concerned with the quality of the molecular mechanics forcefield that will be employed by the program to optimize the geometries of the conformers because I will reoptimize them with quantum chemical methods. However, I need to have a forcefield that is able to handle selenium atoms.
	3) The program should be capable of generating conformers resulting from the rotation around C-OH and C-NH2 bonds. My interest is in the spectroscopic properties (UV-VIS and NMR) of my molecules and rotations around such bonds are very important to me.
So, does anyone on the list know of a conformer generator program that has the characteristics above?
Thank you very much in advance.
Sincerely yours,
		Gustavo L.C. Moura
