    Notes: Previous investigators have shown that statistical mechanical averages for configuration-dependent physical properties of long unperturbed polyoxyethylene chains are sensitive to the gauche-trans energy difference for rotation about C—C bonds. Agreement between theory and experiment could be obtained only by significant adjustment of this energy away from values predicted by semiempirical conformational energy computations. The present work examines the success of MM2 in evaluating conformational properties of long unperturbed polyoxyethylene chains. Calculations are performed which identify the rotational isomers, and their energies, for the indicated bonds in CH3OCH2CH2O—CH2—CH2—OCH2CH2OCH3. These energies are used to assign statistical weights utilized in the configuration partition function for a rotational isomeric state chain with symmetric threefold interdependent rotations. The customary generator matrix scheme is employed to evaluate the mean-square unperturbed end-to-end distance, mean-square unperturbed dipole moment, and their temperature coefficients. Contrary to computational schemes employed previously, MM2 is found to provide an estimate of the gauche-trans energy difference for rotation about C—C which is in harmony with the known dimensions and dipole moments of the unperturbed polymer. MM2 also provides good estimates for most of the other parameters required in the rotational isomeric state treatment. A notable exception is provided by the gauche-trans energy difference for rotation about the C—O bond. This energy difference is overestimated by MM2.

    Notes: Various algorithms for evaluating nonbonded interactions in molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of macromolecular systems are considered, and a combination of two techniques using a space grid for finding neighbor atoms is proposed. The application of grid search techniques to nonrectangular periodic systems is discussed. Finally, the computing time required by different algorithms is compared on a Cray-1 vector processing computer as well as on a CDC Cyber 170/760 sequential computer. Neighbor list techniques turn out to be faster than the grid search techniques for the systems considered here. However, storage requirements may exclude the use of neighbor list techniques for large systems. Finally, MD of complex macromolecular systems turned out to be about 4-14 times faster on a Cray-1 than on a Cyber 170/760.

    Notes: In order to provide additional data for the relative lengths of methyl-C—H bond distances in acetyl derivatives, which are difficult to determine accurately by the conventional tools of structural chemistry, the geometries of CH3COH, CH3COF, CH3COCH3, CH3COOH, and CH3CONH2 were determined by ab initio SCF gradient optimization at the 5-31G** level and compared with previous 4-21G results. For acetaldehyde 6-311G4* calculations were also performed and the correlated methyl-C—H stretching potential energy functions were determined. It is found that the calculated differences between the in-plane and out-of-plane methyl-C—H bonds are practically independent of the computational scheme. The calculated results are in contrast to relative bond lengths obtained by some vibrational overtone spectroscopic studies, but are in perfect agreement with C—H bond length differences determined from isolated C—H stretching frequencies of partially deuterated compounds. The reliability of the latter, and other spectroscopic data concerning the assignment of the methyl-C—H vibrations are critically analyzed. On the basis of the available evidence we conclude: (1) the methyl groups of the CH3C(=O)X systems here discussed contain one strong (in-plane) and two weak (out-of-plane) C—H bonds; (2) intensities of C—H local mode spectra do not provide a reliable basis for assignment to individual bonds.

    Notes: The core potentials for atoms of atomic numer 1-18 fitted to ion spectra by Chang, Habitz, Pittel, and Schwarz have been extended to the molecular case in a Gaussian lobe basis by using a six-Gaussian (6G-POT) representation for the exponential factors of the atomic core potentials. In a (9s/5p/1d) basis the 6G-POT one-electron energies, dipole moments, and Mulliken charges are improved over a one-Gaussian potential form for HF, NH3, and H2O; BeO also yields good agreement within 2.6% of the experimental bond length. For HCl, the core potential shows larger errors in the dipole moment (7%) and one-electron eigenvalues (2%), but a 75% saving in computer time is realized for HCl compared with only about 35% for first-row systems using the 6G-POT core potentials. Analytical expressions are given to extend the 6G-POT method up to s, p, d, f, and g valence shells.

    Notes: The degrees of conformational freedom of poly L-D β-helical chain are analyzed consistent with the helical parameters of gramicidin A structure. From conformational energy calculations, “helical librations” that can be sustained by this structure are described and the energy of libration as a function of the cavity size is presented. Two different modes of conformational change are identified corresponding to librations of all L-D-peptide units or all D-L-peptide units while retaining the helical parameters. Such helical librations are considered relative to conformational perturbations due to the presence of an ion in the channel.

    Notes: Changes of electronic charge distribution following the lowest singlet n-π* transitions of benzaldehyde, benzamide, benzoic acid, the phthalaldehydes, pyridine, and the diazines have been examined using the CNDO-S/CI method. A Singlet n-π* transition is found as a general rule to direct electronic charges to the para position of the atom in the ring that carries the lone pair or to which the substituent carrying the lone pair is attached.

    Notes: We consider the problem of predicting the mode of binding of a small molecule to a receptor site on a protein. One plausible approach, given a rigid molecule and its geometry, is to search directly for the orientation in space that maximizes the degree of contact. The computation time required for such a naive procedure is proportional to n3m3, where n is the number of points in the site where binding can occur, and m is the number of atoms in the ligand. We give an alternative, combinatorial approach, in which only “contact-no-contact” criteria are considered. We relate this problem to the well-known combinatorial problem of finding cliques in a graph and show that we can use a solution to the clique problem not only to solve our original problem, but also the problem of avoiding energetically unfavorable matches. Our experience with this method indicates that the computation time required is proportional to nm2.8, with a lower constant of proportionality than that of the naive procedure.

    Notes: The structures and conformational energies of several conformations of propanoic acid, 2-methylpropanoic acid, and butanoic acid were determined by geometrically unconstrained ab initio gradient geometry refinement on the 4-21G level. The O=C—C—C torsional potentials of propanoic acid and butanoic acid are found to be practically identical. There are energy minima at 0° and 120°, and maxima in the 60° region and at 180°. In 2-methylpropanoic acid there are energy minima at H—C—C=O dihedral angles of 0° and 120°, and maxima at 60° and 180°. The exact positions of the maxima and minima of the H—C—C=O torsional potential of 2-methylpropanoic acid are found to be predictable from propanoic acid rotational-potential parameters. Some conformationally dependent, local geometry trends are discussed.

    Notes: An ab initio self-consistent-field (SCF) algorithm taking into account all the features of the one-dimensional translational periodicity and the helical symmetry is presented. This algorithm includes the long-range correction to the Coulomb potential and is designed to calculate the band structure of periodic one-dimensional polymers (planar or helical). Its efficiency in terms of computing time and numerical accuracy is tested via applications on a (LiH)n chain, polyethylene, and four conformers of polypropylene.
