Dear Paul,

Do you mean ionization?

Try a pH around 7 if you want both COO- and NH3+. In basic condition,
amines are not protonated.

echo "NCC(=O)O" | babel -i smi -p1 -o smi
[NH3+]CC(=O)O
(N.4 if mol2 outpout)

echo "NCC(=O)O" | babel -i smi -p7 -o smi
[NH3+]CC(=O)[O-]

echo "NCC(=O)O" | babel -i smi -p14 -o smi
NCC(=O)[O-]

Pascal
