Thanks Brian. Didn't know that existed! Very useful. As you mention, it is a lot slower to do the check. Tim On Mon, Sep 27, 2021 at 1:30 PM Brian Cole wrote: > Good Morning Tim, > > The RDKit EnumerateStereoisomers function accomplishes this through the > ‘tryEmbedding’ flag: >

be interesting to know what rdkit makes of a molecule like the first one on the left. Does it ‘read’ the stereochemistry correctly? brg Giovanni From: Tim Dudgeon Sent: 27 September 2021 14:04 To: RDKit Discuss Subject: [Rdkit-discuss] validating stereochemistry *** CAUTION : External e-mail *** I

Good Morning Tim, The RDKit EnumerateStereoisomers function accomplishes this through the ‘tryEmbedding’ flag: https://github.com/rdkit/rdkit/blob/d20e5cadc81bf6c7b4e590124866f178f2f2fe28/rdkit/Chem/EnumerateStereoisomers.py#L8 It attempts to generate a 3D conformer for the given stereo
