The SMILES definition of aromaticity would seem to be an excellent solution.
The only concern with elimination of "atom-is-aromatic" property is that I would want to be able to search for an aromatic atom e.g. carboxylic acid attached to an aromatic atom. If I can still do this then I'm happy. Chris ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
