Above the drawing area, there is a text field which displays the current structure in various encodings useful for cutting and pasting. To the left, a number of buttons and other user interface elements control the editor mode of operation. To the right the actual sketching area is located. The exact methods to achieve this are dependent on the type of blocker you may be using.Ī newly opened sketcher window is divided into three distinct zones.
If a popup blocker should interfere, use its override mechanism (such as using ctrl-click) to temporarily allow the opening of additional windows or, preferably, selectively disable the blocker for the domain. In case the window does not open, verify that you have JavaScript enabled in your browser. A separate sketcher window will open that will look similar to the image below. Select the " Identity/Similarity" option, and within that folder tab select " CID, SMILES, InChI." Then enter " 999" (without the quotes) into the text box to specify a CID and press the Edit button. Open PubChem's Structure Search () tool in your browser. Depending on the contents of the source field, the sketcher window may be pre-loaded with a structure, for example by decoding a SMILES or InChI string, retrieving a structure via its CID from the PubChem database, or by getting a structure from some other source To access Sketcher, open the " Identity/Similarity" or " Substructure/Superstructure" tab and select the option to " Draw a structure: Launch the PubChem editor to make a structure." When the " Launch" button is clicked, a new window is opened.
The sketcher is usually started from within a larger form, such as PubChem's Structure Search () tool. The total bandwidth consumed by this application is on the order of an Internet radio station and significantly less than any video streaming site. The tool will work via dial-up, but we recommend a faster connection. A reasonably speedy Internet connection.This scroll down menu, will allow you to draw cycles. You can also change the symbol just by hovering the mouse over the atom and typing the applicable letter (this tool works only for one-letter elements such as C, P, N, O.) When you select an atom, move it over another one and release the mouse button, only the last atom will stay (except when the first selected atom is non-carbon and the second atom is carbon). From here you will be able to change the atom label (from C to O, for example): If you double click on an atom, the 'Edit Atom Data' dialog will be displayed. This mode will allow you to move an atom or a bond just by clicking&dragging. If you click on a single bond, you will get a double bond (clicking on a double bond will draw a triple bond).
Clicking on any existing atom will add an additional carbon. The Drawing mode will allow you to draw a Carbon on your spectral window just by clicking on any empty field. This editor includes a powerful toolbar to draw your molecules: Mnova incorporates a basic 'Molecules Editor' which will be improved in the forthcoming versions of the software.
