From owner-chemistry@ccl.net Mon Jul 25 05:07:55 2005 From: "CCL" To: CCL Subject: CCL: W:Course on Energy Surfaces, Excited States and Dynamics Message-Id: <-28921-050722090245-26617-eSc6C2yCCSce8pLLLmWjCA]*[server.ccl.net> X-Original-From: "Hans Lischka" Sent to CCL by: "Hans Lischka" Dear All, We are pleased to announce "COLUMBUS in RIO", a Quantum Chemistry Course on Multireference Methods, Energy Surfaces, Excited States and Dynamics. This event will be held at the Instituto Militar de Engenharia, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil from Nov. 27 - Dec. 02 , 2005. The goal of the course is to introduce participants into the concepts of multireference theory and their application to several interesting fields of chemistry and molecular physics with special emphasis on the calculation of energy surfaces of ground- and excited states, conical intersections and first steps into ab initio dynamics. This course will be held in the form of lectures and in practical application work organized in small working groups.

SMILES are not good if your molecules have special features which cannot be described in SMILES well (R-groups for instance) or if you need the 3D atom coordinates. SECOND ONE: Difficult to answer without seeing the cyclization reaction (might be difficult to answer after seeing too) THIRD ANSWER: I can recommend ChemAxon's JChem toolkit written in Java (www.chemaxon.com). It contains lots of useful software pieces for chemistry application developers. For example, try to process your cyclization reaction with the Reactor tool. The components of the JChem toolkit are compatible with the Daylight standards like SMILES and SMARTS (and with MDL formats too) and the functions are available through Java API, command line applications and Cartridge technology as well. Contact us for a FREE Academic license, then just download the toolkit and use it! I hope it helps.

That's the part we need some help solving. We are storing our molecules in SMILES format, and at the end our goal is to turn linear structures into cyclisized. FIRST QUESTION: are SMILES the best choice for database entries and computation of new structres??? SECOND QUESTION: if you model spontaneous cyclization from a linear compound, how can you determine which product out of all possible ones is most likely to be the real thing THIRD QUESTION: is there a software that can help us solve "second question", and could you recomend us some(it should cooperate with SMILES "Daylight toolkit" if possible) P.S. are there any Java libraries for this stuff??? Thanks for all suggestions!

I have some Natural Orbital related questions. Is there a good reason why Gaussian does not allow one to make Natural Orbital analysis of ZINDO calculations? I understand that Natural Orbitals are the eigenvectors and eigenvalues of the 1 electron density matrix, surely it is possible to calculate the 1 electron density matrix > from the CIS expansion of the wavefunction of a ZINDO calculation? On a more practical note, when I run a g03 job with the zindo keyword, at a certain point I am told: "1PDM for each excited state written to RWF 633" How do I get to this matrix? Once I get there, I assume I can just put it in mathematica and diagonalise it? The background reason for asking these questions, is that a collegue has asked me how to relate the energies obtained from a ZINDO calculation to the MO energies, am I wrong in asserting that the energies of the MOs are as relevant to a CIS calculation as the enrgies of Atomic orbitals are to the SCF calculation? But, what one can consider is the charge density, and the natural orbitals are a good way to look at that, right? Thank you very much for any tips - I would also be most grateful for any tips for good reading on the subject of CIS/ZINDO calculations .
