These rotamers are not conformers -- that is, obrotamer does not perform geometry optimization after generating the rotamer structure. The obminimize tool can do geometry optimization using molecular mechanics. <p> <h2><a name='sect3' href='#toc3'><b>Examples</b></a></h2> <p> Generate a random rotational isomer of baseconformer.sdf and write it to rotamer1.sdf:<br> <pre>obrotamer baseconformer.sdf >rotamer1.sdf</pre> <p> <h2><a name='sect4' href='#toc4'><b>See</b> <b>Also</b></a></h2> <p> <a href='babel.html'>babel(1)</a> , <a href='obenergy.html'>obenergy(1)</a> , <a href='obfit.html'>obfit(1)</a> , <a href='obgrep.html'>obgrep(1)</a> , <a href='obminimize.html'>obminimize(1)</a> , <a href='obrotate.html'>obrotate(1)</a> . <p><p> The web pages for Open Babel can be found at: <<b><a href="http://openbabel.org/">http://openbabel.org/</a></b>> <p> <h2><a name='sect5' href='#toc5'><b>Authors</b></a></h2> <p> Open Babel is developed by a cast of many, including currrent maintainers Geoff Hutchison, Chris Morley, Michael Banck, and innumerable others who have contributed fixes and additions.
