The code to set an atom's tetrahedral stereochemistry to unknown goes something like this: #include <openbabel/stereo/tetrahedral.h> void SetTetrahedtalUnknown(OBAtom *atom) { OBStereoFacade facade(atom->GetParent()); OBTetrahedralStereo *stereo; if (facade.HasTetrahedralStereo(atom->GetId()) stereo = facade.GetTetrahedralStereo(atom->GetId()); else stereo = new OBTetrahedralStereo(atom->GetParent()); OBTetrahedralStereo::Config config = stereo->GetConfig(); config.center = atom->GetId(); config.specified = true; config.winding = OBStereo::UnknownWinding; stereo->SetConfig(config); if (!facade.HasTetrahedralStereo(atom->GetId()) atom->GetParent()->SetData(stereo); } To set the stereochemistry unspecified, change true to false in the code above and remove the winding line. However, for many purposes this would be the same as not having an OBTetrahedralStereo object for that atom. Where needed, OpenBabel has algorithms to find which atoms are stereogenic and does not rely on the user specifying which atoms are stereogenic. Could you tell me a bit more on why you would need wavy bonds? The only application I can think of is for 2D depiction. OpenBabel's 2D depiction only draws wavy bonds when the stereochemistry is specified as unknown (could be RS, R or S). Another use of wavy bonds could be to inform the reader that the atom is stereogenic and is a RS mixture (or unknown) but this is not used by OpenBabel. This could easily be achieved by calling SetTetrahedralUnknown() though and interpret the depiction differently. There is the TetStereoToWedgeHash() function in src/stereo/perception.cpp that selects the optimal bond to be the wavy.
