  • Convert reaction molecules into 3D
Slide Number 3

System Requirement

For this tutorial I am using

Ubuntu Linux OS version 12.04.

GChemPaint version 0.12.10.

You will also require Internet connectivity.

Slide Number 4

Pre-requisites

To follow this tutorial, you should be familiar with

GChemPaint.

If not, for relevant tutorials, please visit our website.

Switch to GChemPaint window Let us open a new GChemPaint window.
Click on Use or manage templates tool. Click on Use or manage templates tool.

Right click on Alanine to Open in Calculator.

Move the cursor on Chemical calculator window.

Right click on Alanine and choose Open in Calculator option.

Chemical calculator window will open, provided the Chemical calculator is installed.

If not, then please install the same, using Synaptic Package Manager, as mentioned in the Overview tutorial.

Point to the tabs. Window has two tabs at the bottom - Composition and Isotopic Pattern.
Move the cursor to all the components one by one. Composition tab has the following components-
  • Formula
  • Raw formula
  • Molecular weight in g.mol-1 ( gram.mole-inverse)
  • Compound's elemental mass percentage(%) analysis.
Click on Isotropic Pattern tab.

Point to the graph and the peak.

Click on Isotropic Pattern tab.

It shows a graph of mass spectrum with a peak at Molecular weight of the compound.
