Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: John Gerlits (jgerlits) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: sdf to smi conversion - aromaticity of rings fails Initial Comment: RE: sdf to smi conversion - aromaticity of rings fails After conversion the aromaticity of the ring system is not valid. Does this go beyond what OpenBabel is intended to do, or is this a bug? This is an one example of a compound listed at DrugBank: www.drugbank.ca Compound ID: DB02920 SMILES from DrugBank: CC1=C(C=C)C2=CC3=[N-]4C(=CC5=C(CCC(O)=O)C(C)=C6N5[Zn++]44N2C1=CC1=[N-]4C(C(C)=C1C=C)=C6O)C(CCC(O)=O)=C3C This was converted to the absolute SMILES at: http://cdb.ics.uci.edu/cgibin/BabelWeb.py ChemDB / Babel: Molecule Format Converter SMILES: Cc1c(c2=CC3=[N-]4C(=Cc5c(c(c6n5[Zn+2]47n2c1=CC8=[N-]7C(=C6O)C(=C8C=C)C)C)CCC(=O)O)C(=C3C)CCC(=O)O)C=C This SMILES was converted to sdf and back to SMI with OpenBabel GUI. Resulting SMILES: Cc1c(c2=Cc3[n-]4c(=Cc5c(c(c6n5[Zn+2]54n2c1=Cc1[n-]5c(=C6O)c(c1C=C)C)C)CCC(=O)O)c(c3C)CCC(=O)O)C=C This SMILES gives and error instead of structure at: ChemDB / Smi2Depict: Generate 2D Images from Molecule Files: http://cdb.ics.uci.edu/cgibin/Smi2DepictWeb.py The connections of the structure are valid but it apparently does not conform to aromaticity rules and so the ChemDB viewer will not display it.
