tautomerizer bugs

Hi,


I think we found some bugs in the most stable tautomer routine:


CC=NN
C1C=NNC1
C=NO
> cxcalc moststabletautomer >
CCN=N
C1CN=NC1
CN=O


So pyrazoles are threated incorrectly and oximes are converted to nitroso groups which is not good.

Hi,


Thank you for reporting this bug. The fixed version (5.2.3) will be available in July.

I just read a fantastic article:


Tautomer Enumeration and Stability Prediction for Virtual Screening on Large Chemical Databases, J. Chem. Inf. Model. 2009, 49, 68–75


It would be really nice to have such a comprehensive and sophisticated method in jchem. (And it is always good to have a reference for a calculation method, then people critisize less =)

Hi,


 


Thanks for the reference and  the proposal.  I don't have to much time to write publication since I'm developing many other methods. May be I will write publication about pKa calculation in the near future.  Your test and comments are welcomed. 


 


 


Thanks.
