The ChemistryDevelopmentKit (CDK) Java chemistry toolkits v2.9 is out!
- More reaction arrow types
- Multi-step Reaction SMILES extension/depiction
- Universal (InChI) SMILES for large molecules
- Better abbreviations

Info: github.com/cdk/cdk/releases/…
Last year, @csteinbeck's team published "Scaffold Generator: a Java library implementing molecular scaffold functionalities in the [... CDK]" doi.org/10.1186/s13321-022-0…
Over the past year we have modularized it and the SNAPSHOT is now usable in Maven: s01.oss.sonatype.org/content…

Just finished developing JMolecularEnergy the first open source library for calculating MMFF94 force field in java! you can load molecules using @the_cdk and calculate their potential energy or minimize it.Check it out here

Arrow display now live on @cdk depict (dev). You can change the default with a drop down box or use a Data-Sgroup (via CXSMILES) to specify it.

Fun quick patch last night, additional reaction arrow types: github.com/cdk/cdk/pull/927. Now to work out how to get these into to CDK depict
if you like the CDK, plz star it on GitHub: github.com/cdk/cdk/stargazer…
there is a pull request for SMIRKS support. Plz have a look at the functionality, API, and give us your feedback github.com/cdk/cdk/pull/916
CDK 2.8 is out! github.com/cdk/cdk/releases/…
the next time you visit github.com/cdk/cdk you may see the a popup dialog. we changed the name of the default branch of 'main':
just fyi, there is a lot happening right now. There are people working on CDK in AMBIT, CDK in KNIME, and integration of new functionality into the CDK.
new chemfp release (includes the CDK): chemfp.readthedocs.io/en/lat…
"As CDK is Java-based, its classes are accessed in Python via JPype [19]." jcheminf.biomedcentral.com/a…
we just had our 20 year anniversary (a bit delayed). At the start people wondered seriously about the sustainability. After two decades we can safely say, yes, #openscience also works in #cheminformatics github.com/cdk/cdk/graphs/co…

Continuing with the implementations of CDK over the past years @ESchymanski

Do people use chemfp's @the_cdk support? It's part of the standard chemfp installation. No license key needed.
Here's a taste of chemfp 4.0's new cross-cheminf. toolkit API to read molecules and generate fingerprints. Or, replace "cdk" with "rdkit", "openbabel", or "openeye".

ALT An example of using chemfp 4.0's new API for working with cheminformatics toolkits. It shows creating a 128-bit "Daylight" fingerprint for phenol, reading a small SMILES file to create an arena of CDK-Daylight fingerprints, and searching for the 3 nearest fingerprints for a query; displaying the results in Pandas.
