> obabel n-Pentane.xyz -O n-Pentane.sdf --confab --nconf 30 --writeconformers
You don't mention what version of Open Babel you're using, so I can't verify
that you're actually running confab.
But it's not quite the right syntax - you're using features for the default
conformer search methods… Try this:
obabel base.sdf -O conformers.sdf --confab --rcutoff 0.05 --ecutoff 500
--verbose # Use an RMSD cutoff of 0.05Å and a maximum energy of 500 kcal/mol
with RMSD
Hope that helps,
-Geoff
