ChemDraw is a molecule editor first developed in 1985 by Selena "Sally" Evans, her husband David A. Evans, and Stewart Rubenstein[1][2] (later by the cheminformatics company CambridgeSoft). The company was sold to PerkinElmer in the year 2011.[3] ChemDraw, along with Chem3D and ChemFinder, is part of the ChemOffice suite of programs and is available for Macintosh and Microsoft Windows.
Features of ChemDraw 12.0
- Chemical structure to name conversion
- Chemical name to structure conversion
- NMR spectrum simulation (1H and 13C)
- Mass spectrum simulation
- Structure cleanup
- Draw ligand Structure
- An extensive collection of templates, including style templates for most major chemical journals.
- Export to SVG
- Export to PDF (Mac Version only)
File format
The native file formats for ChemDraw are the binary CDX and the preferred XML-based CDXML formats. ChemDraw can also import from, and export to, MOL, SDF, and SKC chemical file formats.
Plugins
SDK for ChemDraw enables third-party developers to write plugins. For example, - Quick HotKey helps to set up HotKeys in interactive mode, instead of manually editing of text file. The Plugin site appears to have been abandoned.
