Bug in R/S labels with group substitute?


MarvinSketch 5.4.1.1


On picture below the second structure is a copy (Ctrl A - Ctrl C - Ctrl V) of the first one.

It is very strange.


I have drawn the left structure by hand and the shown stereochemistry is S.


And so if I copy it it will remain S.


How did you get the left structure with R chirality?

I can reproduce the picture as next:


View - Stereo - R/S Labels - All


draw isobutane


point by mouse at bottom bond and type "6" ("down" bond)


point at left atom and type "N"


point at rigth atom and type "Ad"


Ctrl A - Ctrl C - Ctrl V


 


But if add "Ad" group via menu Insert - Groups, true S-configuration is produced.


 


Best regards.

I have tried to reproduce the problem, but without success.


My main problem is to reproduce the original "R" chirality value.


I have done exactly the following:



View - Stereo - All,


isobutane,


point by mouse at bottom bond and type "6"


point at left atom and type "N"


point at rigth atom and type "Ad"


And the printed chirality values is "S".

It was a bug in chirality calculation, we have fixed it already.


Thank you for the report.
