Kids have a special eye for spotting the little things we often overlook. Challenge them to ‘find something cool’ and you will be amazed at what they discover.

Today, part of the team of the Institute of Chemistry and Biochemistry @fubcp.bsky.social enjoyed great food 🍽️ and discussions at Luise Dahlem before heading together to the university elections at FU Berlin.
Thanks to everyone who joined for the wonderful gathering! #ChemSky #BiochemSky #CampusLife

Of course, you can search for the expressions (as I did for a small test set), but without reviewing the context, it is difficult to make a definitive decision. Maybe a neutral alert is appropriate.

Lab report grading got you down? 😩 We're building an automated feedback tool! Share your common lab report errors that drive you nuts as regular expression (regex) in combination with a comment line.
Example: r'\b\d+(?:.\d+)?\s+ml\b' catches "ml" vs "mL".

LLM-assisted tool generation is awesome. To extend the HRMS checker (doi.org/10.1021/acs....) to automated experimental checking, a peptide sequence parser function (ca. 200 lines of code) was generated in under 2 hours. #ChemSky

Thx! This exercise focused on 3 aspects:
1. Identifying the longest chain, even when a shorter chain w/ multiple bonds is present
2. Ignoring multipliers (di-, tri-, tetra-) when alphabetizing substituents
3. Assigning configurations, especially with vinyl vs. quaternary carbon substituents

Hi Manuel, Happy New Year! You can use Decimer.ai by Christoph Steinbeck & team. Simply copy the structure from a screen or PDF, paste it into Decimer to get the SMILES, and then paste the SMILES into ChemDraw. #ChemSky
