MoleculePattern

MoleculePattern[{atom1,atom2,… }, { bond1,bond2,… }]

represents a molecule pattern with atoms atomi and bonds bondi for use in substructure searching.

MoleculePattern["smarts"]

represents a molecule pattern from the input SMARTS pattern.

Details and Options

  • The atoms and bonds in a MoleculePattern are not checked for proper valence, and no implicit hydrogens are added.
  • Possible forms for the atom patterns include:
  • "sym"an atom with atomic symbol "sym"
    Atom["sym",prop->val]an atom with properties described by rules
    patt1|patt2|…an atom matching any of the patti
  • A bond is entered as Bond[{id1,id2},"type"]. If the bond type is omitted, it will match any type.
