Molecular mechanics calculations (MM2 and MM3) on enamines and aniline derivatives

The MM2 and MM3 force fields have been extended to cover this class of compounds. Structures, vibrational spectra, and other data for 13 compounds were examined and can be reproduced satisfactorily by MM3. Except for the spectra, the other data can be reproduced somewhat less well by MM2. © 1994 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
