CCL: How to identify duplicates for the same molecule that correspond to different tautomers or protonation states?



Dear CCL subscribers,

I am interested in building a chemical database from different chemical suppliers databases. One of the things that I would like to avoid is the repetition of different structures in my database that correspond to the same molecule (for instance, if in the database of two different chemical suppliers the structure for the same molecule is in a different tautomer or protonation state, I would like to identify that they correspond to the same molecule). Any suggestion about how to achieve this?

With many thanks in advances for your help

Yours sincerely

Gerard
