Hi

I’m looking at the —filter option and as I read the docs the available 
descriptors are and I’ve added, in brackets, a comment/question/guess about 
options for filtering based on the descriptors. Does anyone know if these are 
described in detail anywhere, otherwise I guess I’ll be spending a while wit 
trial and error.

obabel -L descriptors
abonds    Number of aromatic bonds (integer,>, <, =)
atoms    Number of atoms (integer,>, <, =)
bonds    Number of bonds (integer,>, <, =)
cansmi    Canonical SMILES (is this for SMARTS matching? include/exclude?)
cansmiNS    Canonical SMILES without isotopes or stereo 
dbonds    Number of double bonds (integer,>, <, =)
formula    Chemical formula (not sure how to filter)
HBA1    Number of Hydrogen Bond Acceptors 1 (JoelLib) (integer,>, <, =)
HBA2    Number of Hydrogen Bond Acceptors 2 (JoelLib) (integer,>, <, =) what is 
the difference to above?
HBD    Number of Hydrogen Bond Donors (JoelLib) (integer,>, <, =)
InChI    IUPAC InChI identifier (matches or is this a text string comparison?)
InChIKey    InChIKey (matches,  or is this a text string comparison?)
L5    Lipinski Rule of Five (how is this implemented? According to Lipinski you 
can violate one property?)
logP    octanol/water partition coefficient (float,>, <, =)
MP    Melting point (is this a calculated property?)
MR    molar refractivity (float ,>, <, =)
MW    Molecular Weight filter (float ,>, <, =)
nF    Number of Fluorine Atoms (Integer ,>, <, =, only Fluorine, or does it 
work with other elements eg nCl, nPo)
rotors    Rotatable bonds filter Is this a totable bond count?
s    SMARTS filter (how is this a descriptor of a molecule?)
sbonds    Number of single bonds (integer ,>, <, =)
smarts    SMARTS filter (is this different to above?)
tbonds    Number of triple bonds (integer ,>, <, =)
title    For comparing a molecule's title (exact text match, case sensitive, 
can use wild cards)
TPSA    topological polar surface area (float ,>, <, =)

Cheers,

Chris
