Hi all, I've finally implemented "f" and "l" options for SMILES and CAN strings. These allow the user to generate SMILES strings with specified first and last atoms. These are designed to help prepare SMILES strings for concatentation; e.g. making a polymer from monomer SMILES, or doing combinatorial chemistry of several SMILES components.
Here's an example for a substituted pyrrole: obabel -:c1c[nH]c(CCC)c1 -osmi -xl 2 gives c1c([nH]c(CCC)c1) obabel -:c1c[nH]c(CCC)c1 -osmi -xl 3 gives c1cn(c(CCC)c1) [Note that this is not a valid SMILES for the molecule, but *is* suitable for concatenation] If you have any comments, please let me know. - Noel ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable. Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes sense of it. IT sense.
