KOS1110: ChemSketch

ACD/ChemSketch Freeware is a drawing package that allows users to draw chemical structures including organics, organometallics, polymers, and Markush structures. It also includes features such as calculation of molecular properties (e.g., molecular weight, density, molar refractivity etc.), 2D and 3D structure cleaning and viewing, functionality for naming structures (fewer than 50 atoms and 3 rings), and prediction of logP. It also act as an additional toolsACD/Labs software aids in teaching key chemistry concepts to high school, undergraduate, and graduate chemistry students. In addition, students benefit from exposure in the learning environment to the same tools they will encounter in the workforce.

ACD/ChemBasic is a simple, convenient, and functionally rich programming language for the presentation and manipulation of molecular structure and related objects through ACD/Labs' software. ACD/ChemBasic allows you to customize ACD/Labs software for your own purposes, to automate routine tasks, or to interface your own programs with ACD/Labs software.

You can use ACD/Chem Basic to:

Write simple macros that automate routine operations within ACD/Labs software
Extend the functionality of ACD/Labs software to suit your particular needs such as integrating with an external program

Because ACD/ChemBasic is a superset of Basic, it is easy to learn and easy to use; consisting of common statements and functions for dealing with numbers or texts, built-in molecular objects and functions to manipulate them, and the objects and functionality of ACD/Labs programs.

The latest version of ACD Chemsketch is version 14.0:
