Dear all, I need to discriminate molecules with 2D or 3D coordinates.
I have a question regarding how RDKit decides if a molecule read from SDF is 2D or 3D.
I have a 2D molecule with, for reasons, the "software line" (2nd line in MolBlock) does not end with '2D' or '3D' but with '0D'. For testing purpose, I copied the molecule and changed the '0D' to either '2D' or '3D'. (see attached test.sdf)
Here is what I have when I check if the molecules are 2D or 3D:
In [1]: from rdkit import Chem
In [2]: suppl = Chem.SDMolSupplier('/home/josemanuel/Desktop/test.sdf')
In [3]: for m in suppl:
print(m.GetProp("_Name"), m.GetConformer().Is3D(),
Chem.MolToMolBlock(m).split("\n")[1])
...: TEST0D True RDKit 3D TEST2D False RDKit 2D TEST3D True RDKit 3D For me, the first molecule (0D) should not be considered 3D.Is the 3D flag set so that if the software line does not end with '2D', it is set to '3D'?
Thanks in advance for your clarification! Cheers, Jose Manuel
