[gmx-users] rotational barrier

[Mu Yuguang (Dr)]

One solution of such problem (similar to my spin labeled molecule) is
that take the center two atoms as dummy atoms, define a long bond
between the two atoms on the rings, Then It is easy to impose a
rotational barrier centered on the long bond.

Hi,
I working with phenylacetylene oligomers in which the phenyl rings are
connected by alkyne linkages.
 
I want to introduce rotation barriers to keep the phenyl rings coplanar.

is it possible to introduce a dihedral around the single bond that
connects the phenyl ring
to the alkyne carbon? if yes, how can i define it in gromacs?

thanks
