Structure of the cation Ehidium (Optimized using MNDO with QC-Lab) Calculated Spectrum Experimental Spectrum (Ethidium bromide)
Category Tools
Abstract

The program CNDO/INDO is a general purpose combination of the CNDO/S, CNDO/2, INDO, and INDO/S programs. It does RHF (open and closed shell) calculations only, no geomety optimizations, and does Multi-Reference CI. Transition metals are included.

Credits

The program is based on QCPE 174, but it has completely rewritten, updated and imploved by Dr. Jeffrey R. Reimers at the School of Chemistry University of Sydney NSW 2006 Australia.

The graphical user interface has been written by Dr. Baudilio Tejerina using Rappture toolkit at the Department of Chemistry, Northwestern University, Evanston, IL - USA
