Subject: SUMMARY: MOL to HPGL conversion


Dear CCL's,

Some days ago I posted the following question:

>Dear CCl's,
>
>I want to write my own converter from MOL to HPGL format which 
>can work as a pipe.
>and I need your help:
>Does anyone can help me to find a full description of MOL format?
>Does anyone know where can I find the sources of such programs (for 
>any platforms, DOS, WINDOWS, UNIX, etc.)?
>
>Please write direct to me, I will summarize.
>thank you.
>
>sincerely,
>Ananikov V.
>


I received a few answers concerning mol file description.
There are two documents available in which mol format is fully described:

 1) Arthur Dalby et al., J. Chem. Inf. Comput. Sci, 1992, 32, 244-255

 2) and a new document is now available online that describes MDL file 
    formats(includes the recent extensions and changes) at:
   
            http://www.mdli.com/prod/fileformats.html


I thank to all responders!
regards,
Ananikov V.

Mime-Version: 1.0

Dear colleagues,

I've been using G94 and GAMESS for a while now, and I'm more or less 
familiar with their methods, but only for organic molecules. Now I need 
to do some energy calculations on diethylentriamine complexes of Co(III), 
Ni(II) and several other metals, and I am quite lost, due to SCF 
convergence problems. 

Could anybody give mesom einformation about the 'best' methods and basis 
for these kind of chemical compounds? Or point me to some literature 
about it? I've read the books by Tim Clark and Hehre, but since they are 
quite 'old' they deal mostly with small organic molecules.

Thanks a lot

Pablo

Dear Sirs:
	We have recently published an interesting article entitled 
"Steric Enhancement of Resonance: An Electron Localization Perspective".
This article has probed a phenomenon termed as 'steric enhancement of 
resonance' (SER) discovered by an Indian organic chemist, Professor V. Baliah
around 1960.  It was also discussed by Professor Kamlet around the same time.  
We have found that the so-called 'steric' effects do have their electronic 
counterparts.  We will be grateful to know of any other studies related to SER 
(either theoretical or experimental) or the sister phenomenon of Steric 
Inhibition of Resonance (SIR).  We will also be glad to mail you a copy of 
our article [Curr. Sci. 71, 131 (1996)].  It could be of broad general interest 
to chemists.
	Thank you very much.
					Shridhar R. Gadre.

Hi, dear CCL members:

	I've noticed that in some cases, the -V/T given in the output of
Gaussian94 is way off the correct value 2. I do know that in the usual ab
initio theory, virial theorem doesn't hold exactly (even though quite many
people are working along this line..), so a value close to 2 is good
enough. But in some of my calculations, I've got values around 4!! What
does this mean? Does this mean my calculation is not correct? I do notice
that in those cases, there are close lying states, I wonder how is this
related to my huge -V/T value.

	Any suggestions? Tons of thanks.

Subject: Error message in AIM calculation in G94



Dear colleagues,

While doing an AIM (Atoms in Molecules) calculation for pyridazinium cAtion
with the program G94, the following error message appeared when the program
was trying to locate the 6-membered ring critical point:

>>> Irreparable ring damage: the gap cannot be bridged
>>> Error termination via Lnk1e in /usr/local/g94/l609.exe.

The funny thing is that in a identical calculation with pyrazinium there
was no problem at all in locating the ring point.

Any suggestions about which the cause of this error may be?

Thank you very much for your help

Subject: Heats of adsorption of simple molecules



Dear colleagues,

I'm intresting in some experimental value of heats of adsorption of 
simple molecules (H2O, N2, O2, CO2, NH3) on the ionic crystals
(NaCl or MgO type). Could somebody help me please with information of 
this type.

Thanks a lot in advance,

Dear Colleagues;

        Re 

        FIELD, M. J. & HILLIER, I. H., Non-dissociative proton transfer in 2-
pyridone-2-hydroxypyridine.  An ab initio molecular orbital study.  JCS Perkin
II, 617-22 ('87)

a formula for the delta G of solvation by bulk water is given involving the
polarisability ("alpha"), dipole moment ("mu"), and spherical cavity of radius
_a_ ("a").

        I would very much appreciate hearing from anyone who has had
experience using this or related equations for the calculation of delta G of
solvation
in which the values of alpha, mu, and a were calculated using MOPAC or a similar
semi-empirical quantum mechanical scheme.

        Thanks in advance to all responders.

There have been many questions regarding visualization of
the data generated by Gaussian CUBE.
One way to visualize the CUBE data, e.g., isoelectron
density and electrostatic potential, is to use the PSI88
package, although it's noninteractive.
That is, you convert 3D volume data from a cube file into
a format suitable for PSICON. Then, PSICON generates
contour data, which can be displayed/printed on various
devices.
For more information about the PSI88 package, you may want
to look at our web pages at
http://zarbi.chem.yale.edu/programs/psi88.html

Detailed procedure follows:
1. Rename a cube file as "kubsub.f17".
   Compile the following program and run it.

Might anyone have handy a program to covert a Discover history file to an AMBER
trajectory file?  AMBER 4.1 has some nice analysis modules we would like to use
on a Discover MD simulation.

Thanks in advance...

I am looking for the recommended reference for the program Delphi out of Barry
Honig's group.  I have found five possibilities from the Biosym/MSI manual for
Delphi but which one is the *recommended* or preferred reference?

Subject: halomethanes




Dear Netters:

I would like to calculate the optimized structures and
normal modes for a set of related compounds (halomethanes).

            Cl2-C-F2 (Dichlorodifluoromethane)
            /      \
        Cl-C-F2*   Cl2-C-F2+
        (radical)  (cation)
        /      \
    Cl-C-F2+   C-F2
    (cation)   (carbene)
                 \
                 C-F

What type of basis-set would you recommend, that
treats all of these species in a balanced way?

My idea was to use polarization and diffuse functions
to catch the ionic or radical character of these species.

I belive, that Hartree-Fock (HF) will do a poor job for some
of these molecules and one has to include electron-correlation
even during optimization! Do you think that it is sensible
to start from a HF minimum structure and to reoptimze with MP2?

Calculating normal modes with MP2 will be quite expensive
in terms of CPU and disk usage! Any idea about the "precision"
that can be expected from such a calculation?

I have little experience with the calculation of ionic or
radical species and every comment, hint, or suggestion
is very much appreciated! I will summarize all the responses.

Thanx a lot in advance!

Your sincerely,

Ferenc

Subject: Re: CCL:Recommended reference for DELPHI


Hi Jeffery,

Whereas some papers specifically describe an algorithmic package,
and give it a name, it appears the earliest publications from Barry's
lab didn't give a program name specifically.
The earliers reference I could find, which describes the method and
provides examples, is
Proteins, vol 1 no. 1, p.47-59 (1986)
Hope this helps!

Don Gregory

Subject: Characterization of Porous Materials: from Angstroms to
  Millimeters


Hello,

        This information may be of interest to those in the chemical
community, who deals with porous materials.


TRI/Princeton Workshop, March 24-26, 1997, Princeton, NJ, USA
http://pluto.njcc.com/~aneimark/copm_workshop

  Characterization of Porous
  Materials:

  from Angstroms to
  Millimeters



The workshop will provide state-of-the-art approaches to characterize
porous materials of different origin in the range over six decades of
magnitude from angstroms to millimeters.

Lectures by recognized leaders of science and technology will include
both the theoretical principles and the methodology of modern
experimental techniques. 

The workshop will also provide demonstrations of capabilities of advanced
adsorption, mercury, and liquid porosimeters and related analytical
instruments, including software programs for calculating pore structure
parameters and predicting engineering properties of porous materials. 

Round table discussion sessions will be organized on typical
applications, including microporous solids, nanoporous regular
structures, disordered materials and fractals, soft and deformable
fibrous materials.

The workshop is intended for qualified scientists and engineers who are
involved in research and development of processes where porous materials
play a key role. Industrial implications include monitoring, control,
design and manufacture of the adsorbents, catalysts, fibers, textiles,
coatings, soils, etc. for optimal performance of catalysis, separations,
paper-making and printing, oil-recovery, pollution control, soil/water
remediation, drying, hemo-sorption, respiratory protection, powder,
nonwovens and other technologies. 

The registration fee is $595 per person ($495 per person for registrants
>from the TRI corporate/assosiate members and for multiple registrants
from the same organization). The fee includes admission to all sessions,
workshop materials, lunch and refreshments.
