title: A program for generation and selection of possible conformations of cyclic molecules.
abstract: An algorithm has been developped for the computer generation of the possible conformations of non-planar cyclic molecules. This algorithm has been used successfully to select the known conformations of the ribose ring, of substituted cyclohexane and of disulfide bridged peptides. Its use may be extended to open molecules when the end-to-end distance is known or imposed.
