✦ Synopsis

Resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization REMPI , in a time-of-flight mass spectrometer, has been applied to detect the S ¤ S transition origins of the 1 0

different n-butylbenzene conformers. Three electronic origins have been confirmed at 37,517, 37,578, and 37, 582 cm y1 and therefore n-butylbenzene has at least three conformers. The REMPI mass spectra of these conformational isomers are indistinguishable.

A new algorithm, complementarity, is developed for conformational search of macrocyclic molecules. The algorithm scans a large number of candidate conformations and energy-minimizes only the promising ones. These candidates can be generated by two operators that construct new conformations from know

We have developed and implemented a tabu search heuristic (TS) to determine the best energy minimum for oligopeptides. Our test molecule was Met-enkephalin, a pentapetide that over the years has been used as a validation model for many global optimizers. The test potential energy function was ECEPP/
