Does BODR require the latest cdk? >I will need to look at this too; do I understand correctly that when parsing that SMILES, the molecular formula is on hydrogen short? When I use "CN(CC2=CC=CO2)C1=CC=CC=C1" to parse SMILES, and calculated molecular formula using getMolecularFormula() or getHTMLMolecularFormula() at MFAnalyser class, they give the correct formula (C12H13NO). However getCanonicalMass() gives the incorrect value. At a glance of the java code, I guess, getHydrogenCount() would be some problem. I think that the pursing of SMILES would be a cause of the problem, but getMolecularFormula() recovered the hydrogen loss ( it does not give C12H12NO), so getMolecularFormula() gives some idea to solve pursing of SMILES more precisely. >> getMass() and getNaturalMass() are also including the same problems. >The problem of having one hydrogen short, or ...? Yes, one hydrogen short. Takayuki KOTANI ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
