UNICON
Overview
UNICON is a command-line tool to solve typical cheminformatics tasks. The functionality of UNICON ranges from file conversion between standard formats SDF, MOL2, SMILES, and PDB via the generation of 2D structure coordinates and 3D structures (Conformator) to the enumeration of stereoisomers, tautomeric forms, protonation states, and conformer ensembles. Users can split and convert small molecule files with high confidence.
Limitations
UNICON is developed for organic compounds only. Any inorganic molecules or metallo-organic compounds are not supported.
Software Availability
UNICON is freely available for non-commercial and academic users for Linux, macOS, and Windows as part of our NAOMI ChemBio Suite. To download UNICON, register at https://software.zbh.uni-hamburg.de.
