What's New in ACD/ChemSketch

Version 11 to Version 12

  • ACD/Dictionary expanded to over 30,000 well-known structures, with over 165,000 corresponding chemical names and registry numbers
  • The background color, buttons, and other graphic controls can be made to conform to the Windows setting, the classic ACD/Labs view, or you can create your own theme and preference
  • Resize and Rotate tools for manipulating images and structure objects are simplified; making them similar to those used by Microsoft Word, ChemDraw, and many other applications
  • Copy all generated tautomers in one click
  • New InChI Options proposed by IUPAC were implemented, including:
    • Mobile Hydrogen Perception (taking tautomerism into account)
    • Excluded bonds to metal
    • Absolute stereoconfiguration
    • Taking into account narrow ends of stereobonds only
  • The SMILE or InChI for zero valent metals has been corrected to prevent the addition of non-explicit hydrogens
