Most of the chemistry is, or should be, in the CDK... Are you yet subscribed to the developers lists of CDK and Jmol? If not, please do so... I would like to propose to work on something which is much requested: a 3D structure generator... Such an algorithm creates a 3D model of a molecule based on the molecular connectivity alone. It does so by placing atoms such that it and the neighbouring atoms make expected angles and distances. Special things happen when ring systems (especially the smaller, strained one) are to be dealt with. Anyway, it is a big job, but will get you familiar with molecular chemistry. The source needs to go into CDK (and will be used by Jmol) in the org.openscience.cdk.layout package, possibly in a sub package... Does this sound like something you would like to work on? BTW, do you also made a SF account? I will add you as a developer to both projects then...
