X p l ore some well known molecules in 2D and 3 D from Aspirin and DNA across Viagra to Zeolith   or from the simplest one to the most complex

HowTo view these structures

VRML Tips

A. click on the images opens up a window with enlarged 2D images B. use the VRML links to open up a window and fly through the 3D structures     If you are not sure if you have an appropiate 3D online viewer, you can test that with my 3D PlayerCheck. If necessary, you can select and download the FREE 3D VRML Browsers (en, de, fr) from the 3D PlayerList. C. use the WLView links to open up a window for the 3D structures.     The WLViewer has specialised 3D features for viewing chemical structures, see my demo on Chlorophyll A. If you want these, please visit Molecular Simulations Inc. to download their FREE Lite Viewer. On adjusting some MIME types, you will be able to view all the 3D structures online if your 3D VRML Player is Blaxxun Contact, you should use (on right mouse) 'Preferences/RenderOptions/3D Transform,Lightning in Software' in order to shed more light on the structures; needs a reload afterwards all larger structures are zipped by gzip: (*.wrl -> *.wrz), but I use the '.wrl' file extension throughout. If you want to edit the VRML structures, simply unzip them e.g. dropping them on a 'winzip' window and drag them out to any folder.
