Hi there,

I would like to split up a molecule into a list of rings (each ring in the symSSSR), where each ring is stored as a molecular object (or SMILES) in the list.

I have found a previous post (http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg01054.html ) which uses Chem.DeleteSubstructs to delete all non-cyclic atoms to leave multiple pieces. But I imagine this would leave fused rings as one fragment, rather than splitting up the molecule into each individual ring. Is there another way to do this which would give me each individual ring, or is there a way of splitting fused rings into individual rings after using Delete.Substructs?

There is also GetRingInfo, but as far as I can see this only gives you size info and atom/bond content of each ring rather than a molecular object or SMILES... am I wrong?

Thanks,

Sarah
