rdkit_utilities

Contained here are some helpful RDKit utilities for:

• generating conformers
  • ranking by MMFF electrostatic energy (for ELF conformer selection)
  • selecting to maximize diversity via RMS (for ELF conformer selection)
• finding symmetric atoms in a molecule
• finding the shell of neighbors around a central fragment, N bonds away

There are also convenience functions for:

• loading molecules from any input MolFromInput
• loading molecules from SMILES with keyword arguments for removeHs, etc.
• loading molecules and reordering by atom map number, analogous to the OpenFF toolkit Molecule.from_mapped_smiles
• generally reordering conformers
• optimizing molecules by specifying force field using a string name

Functions are in files such as rdchem, rdDistGeom, etc. to try to keep to RDKit's organisation convention. Similarly to RDKit, a Chem and AllChem are provided with group imports. Functions are written in PascalCase and keyword arguments in camelCase, also to keep to RDKit convention.
