About one standardizer's rule

Hello





I would like to hear your suggestion about a standardizer's rule.


The attachment is including rule1.xml, Q1.mol





Please test the following command:


standardize -c rule1.xml Q1.mol -f mol -o 1.mol





I would appreciate you delete Reaction ID="1-E" and test again.


You would find the Q1.mol be changed by the rule.





Reaction ID="1-E" is a EXACT type rule.


It should not change the Q1.mol.





I would like to know the reason.





Best regards


Alex

This seems to be a bug in our molecule handling, although the input structure Q1.mol is strange because of the C- atom in the benzene ring. We will investigate the problem and let you know the result.

Hello Nora





The question and the mol came from one of our customers.


Thank you for your help.

The implicit hydrogen calculation for your structure is problematic, since your compound is probably not correct.

We found some literature references to the benzene anion radical, but it is different from your structure. It contains hydrogen atom on each carbon. The plus electron is probably located on a LUMO orbital, which might be stabilized in some complexes.





Your structure is probably a typo, and even the corrected version is unlikely to appear in a registration database which is the main focus of standardization.

Hello Gyuri





Thank you for your information.


Regarding the structure, I will discuss with the customer.





I would like to know


why the rule(Reaction ID="1-E") changed the structure.


It is an EXACT type rule.


It should not change the structure.

The reason is technical: for EXACT type transformations, Reactor should process the reaction for each molecule fragment separately, and finally fuse the parts. This process - although in our case no transformation is performed and the original molecule should be obtained at the end - changes this molecule because a valence check is made some time during the process.
