Dear Peter Stern.

Yes, I need the starting coordination for methanol, but are there specific
coordinates like for spce water or tip3p water?

Where can I find the files .gro or .pdb for methanol ?


Dear Chaban

Similar molecules have already been studied with this methanol.

This Methanol is implemented in opls force field.

I appreciate the time and effort you have spent sorting out that problem.

D.V.
