The geometries of three different sets of transition metal compounds are optimized with the semiempirical PM3 (tm) method. The systems under test are: (i) products of cyclometallation, like [Pd{C 6 H 4 [CH(Me)NH 2 ]}Br(PPh 3 )], (ii) molecular dihydrogen complexes, like [W(CO) 3 (H 2 )(PR 3 ) 2 ], a

✦ Synopsis
The results of a geometry optimization on the 1226 atom Kringle 1 of plasminogen are presented. The energy and gradients were calculated using a linearscaling PM3 semiempirical method with a conjugate gradient density matrix search replacing the diagonalization step. The geometry was optimized with the rational function optimization technique combined with a modified version of the direct inversion in the iterative subspace procedure. The optimization required 362 geometry update steps to reach a local minimum. An analysis is given of the optimization and timing results using a single processor on the SGI Origin2000.
