Abstract

A new force field has been developed for alkanes and cycloalkanes, excluding small rings, to improve the calculation of vibrational frequencies, rotational barriers, and numerous relatively small errors that were observed to result from the use of the MM3 force field. © 1996 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
