[gmx-users] pdb file

A neat way to get generic coordinates of organic molecules like this
is using Jmol:

1) go to http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/docs/examples-12/new.htm?USESIGNED
    This requires Sun/Oracle Java plugin activated in the browser and
asks for permission to trust the signed applet.
    Alternatively one could use the Jmol Application instead.

2) type the following two commands into the "cmd" textbox (or the Jmol console)
    load "$Thiophene" ;
    write coords "?" ;

The first one will load the structure and the second one will open a
Save-File dialog to ask for the filename to save it on your hard disk.

Quoting Bob Hanson (currently the lead Jmol developer): "If you can
name it [and if it is organic] [...] you can probably get it."


Cheers,
Oliver
