Dear friends, I am facing a similar problem.With open babel tutorial I could able to generate a fast-search index (znd_unique) for 30 thousand molecule. I have tried searching matches > 0.5 tanimoto similarity with one molecule and the fast search index it worked well. The command line argument for the same as follows -
babel znd_unique.fs similar0.5_CID5310786.sdf -s"O=[P@@](O)(O[C@@H]1[C@H](O)[C@H](O)[C@@H](O)[C@@H](O1)C)O[P@](=O)(O)OC[C@H]1O[C@H](C[C@@H]1O)n1c(=O)[nH]c(=O)c(C)c1" -at0.5 55 molecules converted 1152 audit log messages But, when I tried with another molecule SCCCn1c2c([nH]c1=O)cccc2)c1nc2n(c3c(c2nn1)cccc3)CC it did not work. The command line argument and error message for the same is - babel znd_unique.fs similar0.5_CID5310786.sdf -s"SCCCn1c2c([nH]c1=O)cccc2)c1nc2n(c3c(c2nn1)cccc3)CC" -at0.5 ============================== *** Open Babel Error in ObtainTarget Cannot read the SMILES string 0 molecules converted 1 errors 3 audit log messages Please help me out.
