CONFLEX Tutorials

Introduction

CONFLEX is a program that performs conformation search, host-ligand coordination search, and crystal structure search of organic molecules based on molecular mechanics simulations. Furthermore, this program can predict normal vibrations, thermodynamic quantity, ultraviolet and visible light absorption spectrum, circular dichroic spectrum, and NMR coupling constant which are taking into conformational distribution.
This manual explains the various functions by actually calculating preexisting organic molecules.
