Molecule Icon Generator

Overview: The Molecule Icon Generator is a tool designed to create visual representations of molecules. It supports input in various formats such as SMILES, chemical names, CAS numbers, InChI, and InChIKey. Users can also load molecule files or convert a list of SMILES strings.

Key Features:

  • Input Options: Accepts molecular information in multiple formats (SMILES, name, CAS-number, InChI, InChIKey).
  • Structure Building: Generates 2D molecular structures.
  • File Formats: Allows downloading of generated icons in SVG format.
  • Customization: Users can adjust the image size multiplier and apply shadow/outline effects to the icons.
  • Performance: Efficient collection of SMILES from molecule names (approximately 0.57 seconds).

User Interface:

  • Name Input: Users can enter the name of the molecule.
  • Image Size Multiplier: A slider ranging from 0 to 900 to adjust the size of the generated image.
  • Shadow/Outline Adjustment: A slider ranging from 0.00 to 1.00 to fine-tune the shadow or outline effect.
  • SVG Preview: Provides a preview of the generated SVG image.
