  • Simple Structure Clean up Tool (checks bonds length, angles and spatial arrangement of atoms)
  • Easy to use R-Group and S-Group tools (Generic, Multiple group, SRU polymer, peratom, Data S-Group)
  • Reaction Tool (reaction generating, manual and automatic atom-to-atom mapping)
  • Flip/Rotate Tool

Installation and usage

At this moment Ketcher can be embedded into your application in two ways:

  • as a react component library
  • as ready-to-run application (to find desired version please look at Assets block of releases). The application can be injected as IFrame or a separate page.
