The revision only changed 3 files. http://openbabel.svn.sf.net/viewvc/openbabel?view=revision&revision=4220 Two changes were adding square planar hybridization to Cu, Pt, Pd, etc. So that can't be it. The other changes were in builder.cpp. The most obvious culprit would be: 231 // check to see if atom is a square planar in disguise 232 if (atom->GetHyb() == 3) { 233 OBStereoFacade stereoFacade((OBMol*)atom->GetParent()); 234 if (stereoFacade.HasSquarePlanarStereo(atom->GetId())) 235 atom->SetHyb(4); // force sq. planar geometry for sq. planar stereo 236 } Now, this seemed to make sense to me at the time -- look for an "SP" stereo designation on the atom and force it to be square planar. So I've commented out this code, but why doesn't it work? Why does your SMILES yield square planar stereo on that atom? -Geoff ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download new Adobe(R) Flash(R) Builder(TM) 4 The new Adobe(R) Flex(R) 4 and Flash(R) Builder(TM) 4 (formerly Flex(R) Builder(TM)) enable the development of rich applications that run across multiple browsers and platforms.
