Hello Greg,
>>> Chem.MolToSmiles(Chem.MolFromSmiles('O=C1NC=CC1=C1C=C(-c2nccc2)NC1=O'))
[14:25:55] Can't kekulize mol

This smiles was generated from ChemSketch. OpenBabel converts it to
O=C1NC=CC1=C1C=C(c2[nH]ccc2)NC1=O which is correctly interpreted by
RDKit (no problems with kekulization).
But IMHO both representations are correct, am I wrong?
Best wishes,
Michal
