title: Systematic enumeration of nonrigid isomers with given ligand symmetries
abstract: A new method for enumerating nonrigid isomers with rotatable ligands has been developed so as to take the symmetries of the ligands into consideration. The method has been based on extended partial cycle indices and has been applied to the enumeration of methyl ether derivatives, tetramethylallene derivatives, and 2,2-dimethylpropane derivatives. These results have been compared with the enumeration results of the corresponding promolecules. The factorization of terms in generating functions has been discussed so that the new method is capable of examining the relationship between promolecules and molecules quantitatively.
