Hi, everyone:

   Are there some of you can give me some suggestions about the input
Z-matrix for GAMESS-UK, I am doing some transition search with it. But
sometimes I will met the error like the following:(error detected in
converting z-matrix to cartesian coordinate). I reprepare the input
Z-matrix to set the dummy atom and half angle in the input file, and I
still met the problem. So would you please tell me if there are some
good methods or some softwares( free of charge) that I can set the
proper Z-matrix( to set dummy atom automaticlly).
   Another question is in the transtion search, for example, if I want
to model the cleavage of some bonds, should I give a long bond length of
the reacting bond,because the input file should be the reasonable
estimate of the TS structure. Am I right. 
   Hope to hear from you soon.



Regards,
Mao

Dear Xavier,

I am not a great expert in Tinker, but I as far as I know, Tinker
is parametrized specially for proteins. Therefore it is understandable
that it lacks parameters in the case of other type of compounds,
when it tries to assignate the force field atom types.
The xmol type xyz file, which was at the end of your letter, does
not contain any info about force field atom types, it contains only
elemental symbols and the coordinates and connections.   

You should try other force field representations, or obtain
the missing parameters from the literature. Unfortunately,
this happens quite often with "exotic" molecules.

best regards

tamas Gunda

I am trying to run a gaussian job at a symmetry lower than the highest
available symmetry.  We know that we need to set IOp(4/9=200 and
2/19=symmetry in a hollerith string) but we don't know what the hollerith
string for C2V is.  Nor is it apparent from the Gaussian manuals.  Can
anyone help us?

Dear netters,

Has anyone observed a cysteine -SH hydrogen bond to an sp2
oxygen?

Thanks in advance,

    Hi Everybody:

    I have the same problem that Tamas Gunda has, I would any info on new programs to treat "exotic
molecules", it has been a headache trying every program Ii found and with none of it I've been able to
calculate anything because of the lack of some parameter.

    Would it be possible that someone has parameters for MM2 or MM3 for tinker or any other program like
it??

    Best Regards

   Max Valdez
