[Rdkit-discuss] Daylight topological fingerprints

2008-04-03 Thread Adrian Schreyer
After a couple of hours work on comparing molecules with RDKit I noticed that the algorithm is apparently struggling with structures that consist of a repetitive substructure, such as linear alkanes (azelaic acid C((=O)O)(=O)O being the worst offender) or molecules like gentian violet
