Look! Jmol is mentioned in this ad. (As if Jmol were competing!)

I'm not understanding the reference exactly, but it's nice to see the mention anyway, I think.

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: SpartanModel: An Electronic Model Kit is now AVAILABLE! Date: Wed, 04 May 2005 16:17:11 -0700 From: Wavefunction Inc <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Dr. Robert M. Hanson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Dear Dr. Hanson,
Wavefunction announces the release of SpartanModel, an electronic model kit. Making use of computer technology, SpartanModel replaces the "plastic models" used by past generations of organic chemistry students, and extends the utility of molecular models in chemistry education. A set of easy-to-use builders allow for the construction and 3-D manipulation of molecules of any size or complexity.
Students are not limited to simple organic molecules; inorganic and organometallic compounds, polypeptides and polynucleotides are also easily constructed. SpartanModel's energy minimization procedure uses molecular mechanics to generate a realistic structure from constructed molecules. Molecules may be visualized in a variety of model styles from tube and ball-and-spoke models (displaying bond types), to space-filling models (revealing size and shape), to ribbon displays for polypeptides and polynucleotides (displaying additional secondary structure information).
SpartanModel determines and displays hydrogen bonds. Models may be labeled to
show element types, mass numbers, charges, and R/S chirality. Structural
information is also available, including bond lengths and angles, torsion
angles ('conformations'), volume and surface area. SpartanModel includes a
large database of organic molecules. High quality quantum mechanical
calculations have been performed on database entries providing accurate
molecular structure, properties, infrared spectra, and on-the-fly generation
of graphical displays of electrostatic potential maps. SpartanModel is
compatible with files generated from Spartan Windows and Macintosh programs
and will open and display molecules, properties, surfaces, and IR spectra
calculated with Spartan programs. SpartanModel is easy-to-use, versatile,
and priced for students.
