CCL:G: Conformational search



Dear Raphael, you enter the following in the command line:
  %Mem=500MB
  #P B3LYP/6-311+G*
  # Opt
  # polar
  # Gfinput IOP(6/7=3) Pop=full Density Test
  # Units(Ang,Deg)
  You can use other basis sets, for instance, using the 6-31G and estimating also
 frequencies would look like:
  %Mem=500MB
  #P B3LYP/6-31+G*
  # Opt freq
  # polar,
  # Gfinput IOP(6/7=3) Pop=full Density Test
  # Units(Ang,Deg)
  When you have submitted your job to Gaussian, and you want to open it and see
 all conformations you can use ChemCraft and in the left window you will see all
 conformations with their respective energies:
  www.chemcraftprog.com/
  Alternatively you can use Gaussview and in the Open file dialog, you can
 activate the option "Read intermediate Geometries".
  Gabedit which is an excellent software can also analyze Gaussian results,
 however I am not sure how to visualize the intermediate geometries.
  Gabedit can be found here:

 Hi Everyone, Is it possible to do a conformational search in Gaussian without
 specifying an specific parameter to change? I mean just to draw a molecule and
 "tell" Gaussian to search for "all" possible conformation
 that are close in energy to the minimum. If this is possible, how can I do it?
 how would be the command line in the input file? I do not know if I made my self
 clear, it is just that I use to do this with Hyperchem, just draw the molecule
 and run a conformational search Thanks a lot for the helphttp://www.ccl.net/cgi-bin/ccl/send_ccl_messagehttp-:-//www.ccl.net/chemistry/sub_unsub.shtmlhttp-:-//www.ccl.net/spammers.txt--========GMXBoundary134731329562269350603
