Hi, currently when I generate conformations with RDKit and want to use them for docking experiments, I have to first rewrite them using the MolConverter node in Knime. I need to do this because some docking software read the information about charges in the atom block rather than in the molecule properties.
Is there a way to specify to SDWriter to write according to the "standard" V2000 format? (1) Here an example with a simple charged molecule (2): MOL1 as created with marvinsketch MOL2 as converted to RDKit format then written with SDWriter MOL3 as rewritten using MolConverter node. If I use MOL2 for docking, some software warn me about valence issues because they cannot read the charge. Did I miss something? Thank you for your help!
