Thanks to Minhhuy Ho for this reply to the query -

Can anyone tell me what the Shannon-Weaver diversity is ? Are there any 
recognised methods for measuring chemical diversity ? I get the impression
that diversity is relative rather than absolute.

Subject: Shannon-Weaver entropy
Status: RO

Dear Dr. Delaney,

The Shannon-Weaver information entropy measures the uncertainty of 'information'
of a system with continuous probability distribution rho(x) by the relationship

    /
S = | rho(x) ln rho(x) d(x)
    /

There have been several attempts to apply the Shannon entropy to elucidate
chemical and physical properties of atomic and molecular systems by our
group and others. The Kullback information entropy distance which is based on
the Shannon-Weaver entropy is calculated as

         /                               /
Id(AB) = | rho_A ln (rho_A/rho_B) d(x) + | rho_B ln (rho_B/rho_A) d(x)
         /                               /

We have investigated the applicability of this distance as a measure of
chemical 'diversity'. Note that rho_A and rho_B in the above equation
indicates that the distance is a relative quantity, as you mentioned in your
post. Following are some articles could be of interested to you:

A good source of information on diversity is any under-graduate book on
ecology. Ecologists have a great deal of experience in studying species
diversity and seem to have developed many methods for quantifying it.

  Dear Netters:
  In December I wrote this group about problems with MOPAC7 on a PC.
Some of the discussion (Summarized on Dec. 6, 1994) involved DOS vs.
LINUX etc.  But the bottom line is that Rainer Koch convinced me that
my errors were very small, and that for the test case I was considering,
MOPAC7 appeared to be working.
  Further tests have indicated new problems.  On Nov. 25, 1993 Mike
Peterson submitted a test example "MOPAC6 under LINUX" involving a
carboxyl radical with the correct answer 3.19 Kcal.  I get 4.19 Kcal.
  On Oct. 2, 1993 Wojiech Galazka sent in an example of C.I. = 2 on water.
The result was 58.99497 Kcal.  I get 59.40290.
  I feel that these are significant differences, and that maybe I have
some problems with my version of MOPAC7.  Can anyone tell me if I should
be concerned?  It would be most helpful to have some more good test
examples.  I would like to run these tests, and perhaps request further
output with DEBUG keywords inserted so that I can track down any errors
that may be ocrurring.

Subject: RE: funny question



Dear Dr. Agrafiotis,

I am a Master's student in Theoretical Chemistry.  These are my suggestions,
which may be more-or-less fragmentary (I haven't formed them just yet).

   - if there is a 1-1 correspondence between valence electron pairs and edges,
     with a loop for a lone-pair, and multiple edges for general bonding, and
     if only a single "resonance structure" (hereafter unquoted) is considered
     to represent a molecule, then my hypotheses are established.
   - the total number of arcs in this graph is then easily established by the
     stoichiometry (and the molecular charge).  Unpaired electrons are not
     being treated here now, so no free radicals or odd-electron systems.
   - if the vertex set (distinguished by nuclear charge, lets suppose) is
     given (I mean we choose some fixed stoichiometry), then not only the
     number of edges, but moreover the DEGREE of each vertex is established
     simply - it should be the "valence" of the atom, eg) deg(H) = 1, deg(O) =
     deg(N) = deg(C) = 4, etc..
   - Note that the above includes lone pairs.  It is convenient that a loop
     (lone pair) contributes +2 to the degree of the vertex on which it
     resides, since then formal charge calculations, which offer other useful
     restrictions to guide us in the solution of this problem, are trivial.
     (Nuclear charge minus the vertice's degree.)
   - in fact, you are interested in the total number of connected graphs over
     some fixed stoichiometry, subject the the above constraints.
   - since different resonance structures of the same molecule will be
     ennumerated this way, and I see this as occurring in a subtle way, this
     approach may be frustrated.


I hope you will let me know if this is of some use for you.

Hi, all,

First, I would like to thank all of you who responded to my original posting
about G-matrix programs. Many of you wanted a summary, so here is a brief
summary.

    Prof. Diem at CUNY, Hunter College has a program. The reference is
    J. Chem. Educ. 1991, vol. 68, p.35-39.

    Hedberg and Mills have a program called ASYM20, which is available from
    QCPE. The most recent version is ASYM40. The reference is J. Mol. 
    Spectroscopy, 1993, vol. 160, p.117-142.

    Prof. Thomas Bally of the University of Fribourg, Switzerland, has a very
    nice program which is able to extract force constants from ab initio
    calculations. The program is going to be distributed by Gaussian. I do not
    know the date.

I also find two recent papers related to G-matrix programs.
    Vijay, A. and Sathyanarayana, D. N. J. Mol. Struct. 1994, 328, 269-276.
    Durig et al. J. Mol. Struct. 1994, 327, 55-69.

Thanks.   Yajun
