My suggestion would be to add a SMARTS descriptor to plugindefines.txt (you don’t mention what OS you’re using, but it should be possible to find and edit this file). Add something like this: SmartsDescriptor namines N* Number of amines Then you can use this new descriptor for filtering: http://openbabel.org/docs/current/Command-line_tools/babel.html#filtering-molecules-from-a-multimolecule-file obabel lotsOfAmines.smi -ocopy -O monoAmines.smi --filter "namines < 2” Hope that helps, -Geoff ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Flow-based real-time traffic analytics software.
