21. Molecular mechanics calculations have been performed by using the MM2 force field, as implemented in CAChe, v. 6.1.1. Minimum-energy conformations have been located by using a block diagonal Newton-Raphson with a convergence criterion of 0.001 kcalmol-1. The structures shown in Figure 1 are selected conformations from the several local minima observed for the tri-(E) and tri-(Z) form, respectively.
