[Rdkit-discuss] Nickel unrecognized atom in RDKit?

[Marshall Levesque]

I was trying to embed and then UFFOptimize a molecule containing nickel, and I ended up with this error:

######### BEGIN PYTHON INPUT/OUTPUT #######

>>> import Chem
>>> from Chem import AllChem
>>> m = Chem.MolFromMolFile('nickel.sdf')
>>> m2 = Chem.AddHs(m)
>>> AllChem.EmbedMolecule(m2)
[14:58:38] UFFTYPER: Unrecognized hybridization for atom: 11
[14:58:38] UFFTYPER: Unrecognized atom type: Ni (11)
[14:58:38]

****
Pre-condition Violation

Failed Expression: end2Params
****

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
RuntimeError: Pre-condition Violation

######## END INPUT/OUTPUT ###########

Here is the molecule:

nickel.sdf
Description: Binary data

Thanks!

Is this problem isolated to Nickel or are there other elements that RDKit will spit out this error? Or am I missing something?
