CXSMILES and CXSMARTS import and export options

    Import options

    Codename Explanation
    s Fix chiral flag from cxsmiles input. By default the molecule absolute stereoconfiguration (relative or absolute chirality - chiral flag) is specified at the extended part of the cxsmiles string. If it is missing it is assumed to be absolute by default (see Molecule absolute stereoconfiguration above). Using the 's' option the molecule's absolute stereoconfiguration is tried to be figured out. Example : molconvert cxsmiles -s 'C[C@H]1CCC@@HCC1{cxsmiles}' results C[C@H]1CCC@@HCC1 molconvert cxsmiles -s 'C[C@H]1CCC@@HCC1{cxsmiles:s}' results C[C@H]1CCC@@HCC1 r

    Export options

    Export options can be specified in the format string. The format descriptor and the options are separated by a colon. All options have default values (see below). Using the "+" or "-" sign the default export values can be changed to "true" or "false" respectively. If the option is given without "+" or "-" modifier then the default values are not used and only the specific feature is exported.

    Examples :

    • "cxsmiles:" writes all default features (absolute stereoconfiguration, enhanced stereo features, atom labels, wiggly bond indexes, ring stereo bond info and reaction fragment level grouping),

    • "cxsmiles:lc" writes the atom labels and the atomic coordinates only,

    • "cxsmiles:+c" writes all default features and the atomic coordinates,

    • "cxsmiles:-le" writes absolute stereoconfiguration, enhanced stereo features, ring stereo bond info and reaction fragment level grouping but not atom labels and wiggly bond indexes.

      Codename Explanation
      u Write unique cxsmiles output. (Includes unique smiles string.) Enhanced stereo information are also stored in unique format. Default value: false .
      e Write relative stereo configuration and enhanced stereo features. Default value: true .
      l Write atom labels / aliases / values. Default value: true .
      w Write wiggly and in case of atomic coordinate export also UP and DOWN bond indexes. Default value: true .
      d Write CIS, TRANS ring bond indexes. Default value: true .
      f Reaction fragment level grouping. Default value: true .
      p Write local parities. Default value: true .
      R Write radical numbers. Default value: true .
      L Write lone electron pairs. Default value: true .
      m Write multicenter SGroups and coordinate bonds. Default value: true .
      N Write link nodes. Default value: true .
      c [p] Write atomic coordinates. p can optionally specify the coordinate precision. If p is not specified, the default value 2 is used. Default value: false .
      D Write Data Sgroup information. Default value: true .
      BOM Write the UTF-8 byte order mark (BOM), if the given or the system's encoding is UTF-8. Default value: false .

      B Write Hydrogen bonds. Default value: true .
      A Write atom properties. Default value: true .
