IgnoreStereochemistry

is an option for MoleculeMatchQ that determines whether stereochemistry should be ignored for pattern matching.

Details

With the default setting IgnoreStereochemistryFalse, molecules will only match each other if they have the same stereochemistry.

Examples

With IgnoreStereochemistryTrue, enantiomers will match:

Use IgnoreStereochemistryFalse to discriminate different stereoisomers:

With IgnoreStereochemistryTrue, cis–trans isomers will match:

Use IgnoreStereochemistryFalse to discriminate different stereoisomers:

A molecule object with undefined stereochemistry will not match one with defined stereo:

When stereochemistry is ignored, the molecules match:
