Hi all

Gasteiger charges calculated by cdk seems to be different from openbabel's
Gasteiger charges.
It would be the following reasons.

Cdk tutorial says:
The calculation of the Gasteiger Marsili (PEOE) partial charges is based on
[Gasteiger, J. and Marsili, M., Iterative partial equalization of orbital
electronegative - a rapid access to atomic charges, Tetrahedron, 1980,
36:3219-3288]. This class only implements the original method which only
applies to σ-bond systems.

(Tutorial uses "elektronegativity". Is it mistype?)


Does somebody have an idea which charges is common (normally used one) for
Gasteiger charges?
And if openbabel's Gasteiger charges is common, how can I calculate its
charges by cdk.

Thanks in advances.
