Some substituted oligoarenes with at least 8 rings in the chain, not particularly fancy (I think the problem is related more to the length of the molecule than to the nature of the repeat units). I tried various options in the EmbedMolecule function, but without success. This error occured in less than 10% tested structures. If anyone is interested in correcting this, I think I can produce a non-confidential input example... > What was the nature of the input from which you were making > rdkit molecules? SMILES. The same input worked 100% fine with CORINA (which was, btw, approx. 5-20x faster on the same computer) and KNIME.
