Dear ChemNetters,

I have the need to calculate the conformations of AZT and its analogues
using AMBER for which I like to have information on the availability
of charges for AZT along with information on how the charges were 
derived.


I will be grateful for information.

Dear CCLers,

I would like to hear how people usually handle low energy internal 
rotations appearing among harmonic frequencies? 
Is the following a not-very-bad approach to correct this problem:
1, check the low frequency dihedral motions to assign the internal 
rotations.
2, subtract these energy contributions from ZPE.
3, thermal energy part of the total energy could be 1/2kt for 
these motions (classical).
In case the Gibbs free energy is needed:
4, calculating with a statistical mechanics formula for the "sum over 
states" for these motions.

Please respond me directly, I will surely send the summary to all!

[  Introduction  ]
=============================================================================

        Kintecus is a program to model the reactions of chemical, biological,
nuclear and atmospheric processes using two input spreadsheet files: a reaction
spreadsheet and a species description spreadsheet. Kintecus can model like no
other modeler can. Absolutely NO programming, compiling nor linking required.
 A quick overview of the main features are: 

     1) the ability to model over 2,000 reactions in less than 8 megabytes
of RAM running in pure high speed 32-bit under DOS! (And because the program is
*ENTIRELY* written in ANSI-FORTRAN 77, other platforms, AIX, Cray, Sun, Mac and
Amiga are coming...)

     2) the ability to use concentration profiles of any wave pattern for
any species or laser profile for any hv. This is very useful for studying very
complicated external perturbation affects or using your own experimentally
recorded concentration profile in your model.

     3) a powerful parser with mass & charge balance checker for those
reactions that the OCR or the graduate student "supposedly" entered in
correctly but the model is yielding incorrect results or is divergent. Do you
know a kinetics program that can completely parse and check for mass/charge
balance on a reaction like this:

#
# Rate Constants ,  REACTIONS:
#
1.234e-20        , CH3(((NO2)3(CO)93)3(CH2)9)23.30H2O+ + Co2 = A--- + B++++ 

Or how about this:

#
# Rate Constants ,  REACTIONS:
#
5.043e+20        , 3.43234 (CH4(N(PO342)43(CH3)3)34)(Os(S7)8)34++++ + 199.432
X++++5CH5+ ==>
5.434Some_Really_Funky_Enzyme_Name_But_I_Just_don't_Remember_IT_This_Name_Is_Ju
st_Too_Long_It_Seems_to_go_on_and_on_like_that_a n n o y i n g Rabbit???---- +
8 HCl + HCO3-

Kintecus is able to accurately check the above reaction for mass and charge
balance because you can create an optional name file containing common names
for species and then their mass representation. This smart mass balance can be
used for biological and nuclear reactions!
Also duplicate reaction and species checking.

     4) As you can see in the above reaction, *FRACTIONAL* coefficients for
species! Now you can finally model that last step in the Oregonator or crunch
100 elementary reaction steps in one reaction step!

     5) Quickly and easily hold one or more concentrations of any species
at a constant level just by typing the value in the field of the species.

     6) Built in support for photochemical reactions involving hv and
Loseschmidt's number. Current units supported are molecules/cm^3, moles/liter &
ppm.

     7) Model reactions from femtoseconds to years! A special switch in
Kintecus allows it to output the concentration of the species that are
displayed only if its concentration has changed significantly from its past
values. This may seem like no big deal, but if you model reactions that last
from days to years you can easily generate files that are dozens of megabytes
in size or more. Such a file is nearly impossible or extremely time consuming
to plot or print, but in Kintecus a special option turns a 100-multimeg file 
into a 100 kilobyte file without any loss in data!

     8) Automatic generation of the species spreadsheet file using the
reaction spreadsheet file.

     9) The ability to do reactions in a continuous stirred tank reactor
(CSTR) with multiple inlets and outlets.

     10) Support for sensitivity analysis.

     11) The integration is carried out by an integration technique
superior to Gears with all internal matrices (reactions and jacobians) are
calculated analytically. There in NO SLOW AND USUALLY UNSTABLE
APPROXIMATION[1].

     12) Support for Excel and Lotus spreadsheet programs.


A QUICK EXAMPLE OF ENTERING AND RUNNING A SAMPLE KINETICS SCHEME:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Go into MS-DOS and create a file named MODEL.DAT. Enter your reactions
like so (using a spreadsheet to do this is highly recommended):

1.323e-4, A- +Widget-- + C==>G+++ + F---+H20
3.2     , E+F = = > G + DNA_A_Replicated_Over_One_Day
54.34   , G = A
END  ( <==-- Make sure this END is here)

Run Kintecus: >Kintecus -c
Now copy the created ADDSPEC.TXT file as a SPECIES.DAT file
(ie. >COPY ADDSPEC.TXT SPECIES.DAT )
Edit the initial concentration fields in species.dat for your model and
type "Y" in the DISPLAY field for species' concentrations you want to save.
Run kintecus: >KINTECUS -ig:mass -ig:charge -show.
That's all.
