CDD wishes everyone a festive and joyous holiday season!

Salt Form Identification

When drawing reactions in an ELN entry, users must now explicitly draw the + symbol to indicate separate reaction components. If two structures are drawn as a mixture without the use of a + symbol, they will be considered as 1 reaction component and CDD Vault ELN will identify any salts found in the structure. If no salts are found, the mixture will be considered a single reaction component.

As an example, if the following structure is drawn as a reactant, CDD Vault ELN will identify the hydrochloride salt.

The resulting stoichiometry table will list this as only 1 reactant, and it will be referenced as methanamine hydrochloride and report the appropriate formula weight.
