  • Importance of 3D structures

Realization that molecules / assemblies / ... are all ‘dynamic’ Conformational changes and the concept of ‘energy landscape’ Conformation-dependent ‘functions’ Sequential / concerted conformational changes to perform a function Rate of conformational inter-conversions: energy barrier, temp. Torsion angle - quantifies rotation around bonds, which in turn, brings about conformational changes Energy changes due to bond stretching / angle bending Population of molecules in different energy minima, ergodic hyp.

  • Two atoms (other than bonded / geminal), when they come close,

repel - van der Waals repulsion Repulsion is so high that the energy of that conformer will be very high, and consequently such a conformer is not populated (partition function) - essentially, it is a ‘disallowed’ conformation Virtually an infinite number of conformations are possible, especially for ‘large’ molecules - calculating energy for all these conformers is practically not possible Limitations of functions / parameters / approach for calculating energies Hard-sphere approximation: what it is and what is usefulness Conformation of saccharides: ethane, butane, cyclohexanes, ...
