Hi Bud,
They are only immaterial if leap ignores impropers in prepin and refers to
the force field to build suitable impropers. This was apparently the case 3
years ago. I am checking that this is still the case. If it is so, I expect
the same impropers will be built over the sidechain transamide bond as are
built over the mainchain amide bonds.
cheers,
John.
