Hi Found the 'Fragmenting a molecule' section on the Snippets website very useful: http://cheminfo.informatics.indiana.edu/~rguha/code/java/
I tried it on some molecules with aromatic rings but did not cleave certain bonds as expected from your comments. 'The side effect of this approach is that a molecule like 2,3-dimethyl benzene will not be split into any fragments. On the other hand if the molecule is split on terminal bonds, we would only include the large fragment (and not the single atom at the end of the terminal bond). A side effect of this approach is that a group like NO2 would get split up into a N=O and O which may not be appropriate.' Would it be possible to cleave TERMINAL bonds the code was changed. Tried to change the code without success. Also cyclohexane is not cleaved even though it does not have terminal bonds.
