In general, it's not clear which bonds should be marked aromatic. > Still, I am using a software that can handle aromatic bonds in SDF. Is there > a way to achieve this with OpenBabel? A workaround might be to generate the SDF file with Open Babel, and then hack it with a Python script that checks whether a specific bond is aromatic (I assume there is an OBBond.IsAromatic method or something similar). We can look into adding this as an option to the SDF writer. - Noel ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Simplify data backup and recovery for your virtual environment with vRanger.
