Conformer generation / basic concepts
• Conformers are locally stable structures of a molecule.
– Conformers are often called “rotamers”, however rings may
also have different conformers which are not rotamers.
• Intermediate structures, corresponding to molecular
motion, are conformations and should not be
considered as conformers.
• The lowest energy conformer can only be found
certainly if all conformers are known.
• The distribution of conformers can be approximated
using the calculated conformational energy.

Goal of conformer generation
• Generating valid 3D molecular structures
• Finding multiple structures for flexible molecules

History of conformer generation in Marvin
• First approach based on a generalized Minkowski
metric
G. Imre, G. Veress, A. Volford, Ö. Farkas “Molecules from the Minkowski
space: an approach to building 3D molecular structures” J. Mol. Struct.
(Theochem) 666-667, 51 (2003)
• Due to problems with chirality and slow computational
time we introduced an atom-by-atom fuse method
G. Imre, Ö. Farkas “3D Structure Prediction and Conformational Analysis”
7th ICCS, June 5 - 9, 2005 Noordwijkerhout, The Netherlands
• Scheduling is important
• Faster and reliable process
• Frequent use of geometry optimization may slow down the
process
• Current version is based on fusing fragments
May 2006
Key algorithms
used or developed for conformer generation
Quaternion fit (JQuatFit)
• Based on the work of Hamilton
• http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quaternion
• Can fit two molecular structures via non-iterative, linear
scaling, extremely fast method.
• Used for fitting common atoms for fusing fragments
Substructure3DSearch
• Based on the substructure search implemented by ChemAxon
• Simplified for fast exact match (using graph invariant)
• Extended with
• geometry matching (using quatfit) to separate conformers
• high/low priority matching for selecting suitable fuse positions
• geometry constrained topological matching for fragment re-use
• Can quickly distinguish conformers with optional diversity limit

Adjust Clean/3D mode
• Fast build: old algorithm,
no Hydrogens
• Fine build: new algorithm,
automatically adds Hydrogens
• Build or optimize: build only
for non 3D structures
• Optimize: just optimize

MSketch/MView calculator plugins
The conformer plugin
allows easy access to
the most important
options:
• Output as molecule array or
storage in single molecule
• Variable optimization criteria
• Multiple or single conformer
• Maximum conformer count
• Time limit for the process
• “Hyperfine” mode for thorough
checking of conformers
• H-bond visualization
• Access to old algorithm

The conformers can
also be stored as a
property of the molecule
(available in mrv, sdf)
• Single molecule appears
as a result and “Ctrl-F”
displays the stored the
individual conformers
• The desired conformer
to display can be selected
• The selected conformer
should be confirmed.
