 SMILES😄

SMILES??? What is SMILES actually? 

Here is the SMILES.👆

Nah! Not that one. This SMILES stands for 'Simplified Molecular Input Line Entry System'. It is used to translate a chemical's 3-D structure into a string of symbols that is easily understood by computer software.SMILES notation is used to enter chemical structure into EPI Suite estimation programs and ECOSAR. Additional examples of SMILES notations are available in the HELP files of EPI Suite and ECOSAR. SMILES strings can be imported by most molecule editors for conversion into 2-D drawings or 3-D models of the molecules.

Below are the examples of SMILES notation for some molecules.

For easier understanding, here is some representations in SMILES notation.

Atomic symbol:

C        methane,CH4
O        water,H2O
S        hydrogen sulfite,H2S                                                                                        
N        ammonia,NH3
P        phosphine,PH3                                                             
Cl       hydrogen chloride,HCl             

               
Bond(s):

−        single
=        double
#        triple
:          aromatic


Branches:

- enclosed in parentheses"( )" 
                e.g.  CC(C)C(=O)O for isobutric acid with RN 79-31-2

-also can be nested or stacked
                e.g. C=CC(CCC)C(C(C)C)CCC for 3-propyl 4-isopropyl 1-heptene


Cyclic Structures:

- breaking of one single or double(aromatic) bond in each ring.
- the bonds are numbered in any order, designating ring opening/ closure by a digit immediately following the atomic symbol at each ring closure
-each SMILES notation will start and end with C1
  



TIPS:
*usually hydrogen is not shown
*elements must be shown in bracket, e.g. [Au] for gold
*single bond & aromatic bonds doesn't need to be written 
*aromatic carbon is indicated by lower case
*a molecule can has more than one valid notation,e.g. CC(=O)C and O=C(C)C both for acetone
*symbol asterisks '' * '' indicate  where each SMILES notation begin
