Excuse me for asking what must have been a common question, but my attempts to sort this out for myself have not been fruitful so far. So could anyone give me the names and sources of software for the Mac preferably, but PC as well, that will construct and display some reasonable approximation of the 3D structures of some simple organic molecules. PD and commercial would both be of value. My requirement is simply for pretty pictures which can show the similarity of some homologues that we have synthesised. I am aware of MacMolecule, a fine package, but that requires the data to come from previously solved X-ray crystalographic structure. Any help would be most welcome Ian McCauley Victorian Institute of Animal Science INTERNET/AARNET extim@lure.latrobe.edu.au.oz $
