Commonly Used Features
Energy | Determine total energy (Hartree-Fock, DFT, MP2), heat of formation (semi-empirical and T1 from database) or strain energy (molecular mechanics). | Equilibrium Geometry | Determine closest local minima (equilibrium geometry). | Transition State Geometry | Isolate transition-state geometries associated with chemical reactions. | Calculate and Plot IR Spectra | Calculate and plot normal-mode vibrational frequencies. Useful in establishing whether or not a geometry corresponds to an energy minimum or to a transition state. | Calculate and Plot NMR Chemical Shifts | Chemical shifts from B3LYP and EDF2 models. Used in conjunction with experimental NMR to establish/validate a molecule's identity. | Energy Profiles | Scan one or more geometrical coordinates. Used to locate a transition state along a reaction coordinate and to analyze conformational energy changes. | Equilibrium Conformer | Search conformational space to determine the global minimum from among a molecule's possible conformations. |
