Dear Netters,
this is my first time writing at the computer chemistry list, so I hope I won't 
make mistakes!
I'm involved in a strange problem: I need a set of extremely refined charges 
for this simple fragment: 1,5 dimetoxy-2,4 dimethyl-benzene; unfortunately I 
don't have the ab-initio program GAUSSIAN, so I used MOPAC-MNDO choosing the 
ESP option. The problem is that the partial charges obtained for the two 
oxigens of the metoxy groups are less negative than the one on the C5 atom (-0.
33 -0.45 respectively). Should it be theorically correct? Consider that I never 
obtain this result when using MOPAC_AM1 without the ESP option.
Please, send messages to me and I will post for the list.
Thank you in advance for any suggestion.

Dear Netters,
	Recently I asked for programs able to draw or view Molecular Orbital
issued from MOPAC type calculations. I got several answers and thanks for 
that. I wanted free and ftp'able programs. Among them, there were :
PSI88, MOLDEN, MOPLOT2, SciAn, EDMOL.
	For my purpose, the best I try so far was PSI88 although there
is some problem:
	- It works fine for small molecules ie with atoms numbers in the
order of 10-20, but it did not seem to work with bigger molecules ie 40-50
atoms. Does somebody know why ?
	- Is there any mailing-list associated with this program ?
I am trying to test the other cited-above program to see if they do better.
Greetings. Bye.

   Hi,
      In the psi1.f portion of PSI88, there are two parameter statements:
      PARAMETER (MAXATM=50)
      PARAMETER (MAXORB=200)

      The first for the maximum number of atoms which can be used, but
  the second parameter also determins how many atoms you can use.
  It is the maximum number of orbitals allowed, and will need to be
  increased, especially if you are doing gaussian type basis sets.

      Edit psi1.f and make a global change of MAXORB=200 to MAXORB=500.
  If you aren't short on memory you can make it 1000 instead of 500.
  One array will increase in size from 160K to 1MB at 500, and 4MB using
  a value of 1000.  Then recompile and that should fix the problem.

      I see that I didn't do as much range checking as I should have when
  I wrote the program :-b  Apologies for that.
       Good luck!

BOSS by Willam Jorgensen is probably what you are looking for. He can be
reached at bill@doctor.chem.yale.edu. I costs $500 for academic people.

Hope this helps

MolPic can solve your problem if you are using DEC Workstaions [ultrix or
OSF/1] or have PHIGS support. NEAR REAL TIME is not possible. BTW, what do you
mean by that. One ps will take much much .... more time than a ps.
