Hi,

I don't know if this is related, but I've found another example of what appears to be an "erroneous structure" with the -p option in 2.3.1. I noticed it when converting to PDBQT format, but there's also a problem when I convert to PDB. The files in question are attached.

babel -isdf input.sdf -opdbqt nop.pdbqt
#works fine (also works OK with -h option)

babel -isdf input.sdf -opdbqt p.pdbqt -p 7.4
#produces a nonstandard PDBQT file with multiple header sections. Converting to PDB with -p also produces an erroneous structure but at least the file format is complied with (I think).

I've noticed this problem with a number of molecules, all of which contain azide groups.

cheers,

Doug

Just following up on this as Chris just fixed the issue reported by
Douglas. The problem in your case is different, if it is actually an
error by Open Babel. If you look in phmodel.txt, you can see all of
the protonation rules. The one being applied in your case is:

#guanidine or amidine
TRANSFORM [#6^2+0:1](~[N^2])(~[N^2])* >> [#6+:1](~N)(~N)*         12.5

If you don't like this, just comment it out by putting a # at the
start. Should we adjust the rule somehow as you think it is incorrect?

Regards,
   Noel

Hey Douglas, thank you for your help and for the information provided. I'll
take this into account.

I hope somebody could fix this bug soon. The '-p' option seems so useful to
me.

Cheers!
