I don't know why OpenBabel accepts it, but there's definitely an error in
that SMILES. This part: "=N/#N" has a single bond (the "/") directly
followed by a triple bond (the "#"), and that's not legal SMILES.
I do see an error message when I try the SMILES:
In [2]: mol = Chem.MolFromSmiles('CCCCN(CC(O)C1=C\C(=N/#N)\C(=O)C=C1)N=O')
[06:04:54] SMILES Parse Error: syntax error for input:
'CCCCN(CC(O)C1=C\C(=N/#N)\C(=O)C=C1)N=O'
and find it a bit odd that you don't. What operating system are you using
and how are you running the code?
Best,
-greg
