ChemSketch is a molecular modeling program used to create and modify chemical structures in 2D and 3D. It allows users to draw structures, view them as 3D models, and understand molecular bonds and functional groups. ChemSketch has templates for common structures and ions that can be added, tools for drawing complex molecules, and the ability to export structures and properties for use in other documents and presentations. While similar to other molecular drawing programs, ChemSketch provides an easy way to both draw and visualize chemical structures.

4. INTRODUCTION TO CHEMSKETCH
o This is an introduction to the program ChemSketch, from ACD Labs.
You can use ChemSketch to draw chemical structures, and to view
them as three dimensional (3D) models.
o It can be used to produce structures of organic molecules, names of
organic molecules as well as Lewis structures, 3D structures, space
filling models or ball and stick models, among other things.

5. INTRODUCTION TO CHEMSKETCH
o ACD/ChemSketch is a molecular modeling program used to create
and modify images of chemical structures. Also, there is a software
that allows molecules and molecular models displayed in two and
three dimensions, to understand the structure of chemical bonds and
the nature of the functional groups.
o At this point, you have a 2D structure on the screen in ChemSketch.
You want to convert it to a 3D structure.

 Topic Features

22.  The program offers some advanced features that
allows the molecules rotate and apply color to
improve visualization. It has several templates with
ions and functional groups with the possibility to
add text and use other tools to optimize productions
created by the software.
 You can select different arrows, including arrows
suitable for equilibrium systems. You can write
reagents or conditions above the reaction
arrow. You can change an acid to the anion of the
acid showing a negative charge.

23.  Rings and templates:
 ChemSketch provides templates of several "complex"
structures, allowing you to add these structures as a unit.
Go to Templates menu, and choose Table of Radicals.
(You can also reach this by pressing F6. There is also a
tool button for this feature.
 The template window has a folder called lab kit which
contains 7 pages of diagrams of equipment.
 It also provides many ring structures to draw the
compounds.

24. CONT.…
When we opened it, it
highlights the carbon,
draw normal & structure.

25.  Everything you do in Chemsketch can be copied into a word
document, ppt. etc.
