Great. Thanks. I suspected that would be the case, but just wanted to be sure I wasn't missing anything. On Tue, Jul 14, 2020 at 9:42 AM Greg Landrum wrote: > Hi Tim, > > Yes, you need to set the property manually if you would like the chiral > flag to be set in the mol file. > > The code

Hi Tim, Yes, you need to set the property manually if you would like the chiral flag to be set in the mol file. The code behaves this way because otherwise it would need to guess what the user intended (as well as how they interpret/use the chiral flag). -greg On Mon, Jul 13, 2020 at 1:28 PM

[Rdkit-discuss] Chiral flag when writing molfile

2020-07-13 Thread Tim Dudgeon
I've noticed that when writing a 3D molfile that has been generated by RDKit (in my case using AllChem.EmbedMolecule) and has chirality present that the chiral flag is not set. At least it is not always set, I can't be exactly sure. My exact scenario is to read a chiral SMILES, convert to 3D using
