Subject: standard orientation of point charges
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii


Dear CCLers

I want to study the effect of molecule B on molecule A. The effect of B are
defined as point charges and properties of A will be calculated in the presence
of these charges using G94. Since these points represent a molecular system B,
their position have to be the same as B coordinates relative to A. In G94:

when you define the whole AB molecular system

or

when you define only A as coordinates and B as point charges

you will have different standard orientation for A and it means that the
position of point charges are different in these two. Is there any tool in G94
or other programs to find transformed positions for these charge points?

Thanx in advance

Dear Colleagues;

     I am seeking the _first_ publication in which it was recognised that the
O -- H stretching frequency of phenolic compounds falls out in the range 3500-
3600 cm-1 (IR spectrum).  This fact has apparently been very well known for a
_long_ time, but I've been unable to find the original paper in which this fact
was first recognised and discussed.

     No need to clog the bandwidth; kindly contact me directly at the Internet
address given below.

     Thanks in advance to all responders.


Sincerely,

S. Shapiro

The Third Electronic Computational Chemistry Conference (ECC-3) will be held
during the month of November 1996. As before, ECCC-3 will be a fully
electronic conference devoted to all aspects of computational chemitry.
Papers, posters and discussions will be handled entirely using the
world-wide web. We invite all computational chemists to participate - 
one of the main advantages of e-conferencing is the ability to easily
adapt the conference to one's busy schedule! As before, there is no 
registration fee for ECCC-3.

-----------------

  September 30, 1996- Deadline for submission of abstracts
  October 4, 1996 - Registration begins
  October 25, 1996 - Final papers due
  November 1, 1996 - Conference begins
  November 30, 1996 - Conference ends

Dear All,
	To study electrostatic component of intermolecular interaction
I would like to do (partial) geometry optimization in the presence of
background point charges. Unfortunately, Gaussian94 does not have this
option. 
	Gaussian94 is not supposed to optimize in uniform electric field
also, but in fact it does. Keeping this in mind, I run optimization with
background point charges. The first step seemed to work fine, generated
new geometry and derivatives, etc. Nevertheless, at the second step point
charges disappeared and eventually the geometry converged back to where I
started. I suspect, Gaussian94 does not pass the information about 
point charges to some COMMON blocks, so they do not survive at the
following steps of optimization route.
	Is there some Gaussian94 guru who can suggest me where to look or
have alternative opinion on what is happening?
	Any opinions/pointers on geometry optimization in the presence of
background point charges will be much appreciated.

Sincerely,
Artem

Dear Emad,
 You can always get coordinates in the standard orientation by running
short test job (for instance, AM1 instead of RHF). 
 Personally I found much easier to use the cartesian coordinates from
output and keyword NOSYMM, which prevents transformation into standard
orientation. 
 Please note that keyword CHARGE needs input list in AU (rather then in
A).  Of course you can convert, but keyword MASSAGE does the job and
takes cartesians in A. 

Hope it helps,
Artem
