Reviews

A very powerful tool
Brad Larson

This application is loaded with features for constructing and viewing molecules. As the author of a "competing" application, Molecules, I can say that this one has many features that I will most likely never implement in my own program. The carbon nanotube and crystal structure generation alone could make it very interesting to a few classes of users. If you are a chemist, materials scientist, or even student, I think you'll get your money's worth out of this application.

Incredibly handy for this Organic Chemist! This app gives you the ability to view molecues in 3-D, you can also construct and edit various compounds that are samples or that you have made on your own computer. The app will not align the compound to have the best steriochemsitry. I had trouble using the ftp server and emailed the creater about it and he implemented the "Download from Web" feature, within days upon my request. Great support and great app! You have earned a fan!

I have no idea what I'm doing with this stuff but it's still fun to look at and it's so cool!

need directions
joeyfingas

This is really cool. but i havent figured out how to upload any new molecules and i cant find a user guide or anything. im pretty lost but im playing around with the samples a lot.

Not user friendly

No idea how to work this program. It seems very interesting but needs to be user friendly.

Cool

Has great stuff

I don't understand how to download the molecules off the Internet, it is too difficult.please add instructions,also,it would be nice if we could create our own crystals instead of the same one;however,other then this it is a very good app and it helps a lot. This app needs a few updates and it's up to 5 stars.

Great, but needs fine-tuning

iMole has easily become my favorite applications for a variety of reasons, from the visual glamour to the ability to structure your molecule's bond length to the nearest thousandth (or less even) of an Å. My favorite tool of course is the auto-optimization tool which structures a compound to its best conformation, saving me loads if time (user beware though it doesn't take preferred R and S enantiomers) However I would love to see some instructions for some of the trickier parts of this application, such as crystalline structures, and it ABSOLUTELY needs a guide to downloading molecules off the Internet (for those of us less Internet savvy). I'd also adore other potential features in this application, such as electrostatic potential mapping (if it has it I haven't been able to find it) Over all though this is a must have for anyone with interest in molecules, or even the acerage organic chem student who want's to save $40 on a molecule building kit for something that gives them so much more!
