OPSIN - Open Parser for Systematic IUPAC Nomenclature
=====================================================
__Version 2.9.0 (see [ReleaseNotes.txt](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dan2097/opsin/master/ReleaseNotes.txt) for what's new in this version)__  
__Source code: <https://github.com/dan2097/opsin>__  
__Web interface and informational site: <https://www.ebi.ac.uk/opsin/>__  
__License: [MIT License](https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT)__  

OPSIN is a Java library for IUPAC name-to-structure conversion offering high recall and precision on organic chemical nomenclature. 

Java 8 (or higher) is required for OPSIN 2.9.0 

Supported outputs are SMILES, CML (Chemical Markup Language) and InChI (IUPAC International Chemical Identifier)

### Simple Usage Examples
#### Convert a chemical name to SMILES
`java -jar opsin-cli-2.9.0-jar-with-dependencies.jar -osmi input.txt output.txt`  
where input.txt contains chemical name/s, one per line

    NameToStructure nts = NameToStructure.getInstance();
    String smiles = nts.parseToSmiles("acetamide");

#### Convert a chemical name to CML
`java -jar opsin-cli-2.9.0-jar-with-dependencies.jar -ocml input.txt output.txt`  
where input.txt contains chemical name/s, one per line

    NameToStructure nts = NameToStructure.getInstance();
    String cml = nts.parseToCML("acetamide");

#### Convert a chemical name to StdInChI/StdInChIKey/InChI with FixedH 
`java -jar opsin-cli-2.9.0-jar-with-dependencies.jar -ostdinchi input.txt output.txt`  
`java -jar opsin-cli-2.9.0-jar-with-dependencies.jar -ostdinchikey input.txt output.txt`  
`java -jar opsin-cli-2.9.0-jar-with-dependencies.jar -oinchi input.txt output.txt`  
where input.txt contains chemical name/s, one per line

    NameToInchi nti = new NameToInchi()
    String stdInchi = nti.parseToStdInchi("acetamide");
    String stdInchiKey = nti.parseToStdInchiKey("acetamide");
    String inchi = nti.parseToInchi("acetamide");

NOTE: OPSIN's non-standard InChI includes an additional layer (FixedH) that indicates which tautomer the chemical name described. StdInChI aims to be tautomer independent.
### Advanced Usage
OPSIN 2.9.0 allows enabling of the following options:

* allowRadicals: Allows substituents to be interpretable e.g. allows interpretation of "ethyl"
* wildcardRadicals: If allowRadicals is enabled, this option uses atoms in the output to represent radicals: 'R' in CML and '*' in SMILES e.g. changes the output of ethyl from C[CH2] to CC\*
* detailedFailureAnalysis: Provides a potentially more accurate reason as to why a chemical name could not be parsed. This is done by parsing the chemical name from right to left. The trade-off for enabling this is slightly increased memory usage.
* allowAcidsWithoutAcid: Allows interpretation of acids without the word acid e.g. "acetic"
* allowUninterpretableStereo: Allows stereochemistry uninterpretable by OPSIN to be ignored (When used as a library the OpsinResult has a status of WARNING if stereochemistry was ignored)
* verbose: Enables debugging output (command-line only). This option has the effect of lowering the logging threshold on the uk.ac.cam.ch.wwmm.opsin package to DEBUG.

The usage of these options on the command line is described in the command line's help dialog accessible via:
`java -jar opsin-cli-2.9.0-jar-with-dependencies.jar -h`

These options may be controlled using the following code:

    NameToStructure nts = NameToStructure.getInstance();
    NameToStructureConfig ntsconfig = new NameToStructureConfig();
    //a new NameToStructureConfig starts as a copy of OPSIN's default configuration
    ntsconfig.setAllowRadicals(true);
    OpsinResult result = nts.parseChemicalName("acetamide", ntsconfig);
    String cml = result.getCml();
    String smiles = result.getSmiles();
    String stdinchi = NameToInchi.convertResultToStdInChI(result);

`result.getStatus()` may be checked to see if the conversion was successful.
If a structure was generated but OPSIN believes there may be a problem a status of WARNING is returned. Currently this may occur if the name appeared to be ambiguous or stereochemistry was ignored.
By default only optical rotation specification is ignored (this cannot be converted to stereo-configuration algorithmically).

Convenience methods like `result.nameAppearsToBeAmbiguous()` may be used to check the cause of the warning.

NOTE: (Std)InChI cannot be generated for polymers or radicals generated in combination with the wildcardRadicals option

### Availability
OPSIN is available as a standalone JAR from GitHub, <https://github.com/dan2097/opsin/releases>  
* `opsin-cli-2.9.0-jar-with-dependencies.jar` can be executed as a command-line application. It includes SMILES/CML/InChI support and bundles a logging implementation.
* `opsin-core-2.9.0-jar-with-dependencies.jar` includes just SMILES/CML support.

OPSIN is also available from the Maven Central Repository. 
For SMILES/CML output support you would include:

    <dependency>
       <groupId>uk.ac.cam.ch.opsin</groupId>
       <artifactId>opsin-core</artifactId>
       <version>2.9.0</version>
    </dependency>

or if you also need InChI output support:

    <dependency>
       <groupId>uk.ac.cam.ch.opsin</groupId>
       <artifactId>opsin-inchi</artifactId>
       <version>2.9.0</version>
    </dependency>

#### Building from source
To build OPSIN from source, download Maven 3 and OPSIN's source code.

Running `mvn package` in the root of OPSIN's source will build:
