- Chemical structure editor
- Templates
- Interoperability
- Publish-Ready Formatting
- Analysis Tools
Draw, edit, and optimize structures
- Create molecular structures and reaction schemes* using a comprehensive chemical drawing toolkit.
- Edit bonds, atoms, charges, and stereochemistry including stereocenters, cis/trans configurations, and accurate R/S assignments.
- Automatically optimize layouts with Clean Up Structure for clear, publication-ready geometry.
- Represent complex chemistry efficiently using stereogroups (AND/OR/ABSOLUTE) and reusable fragments or superatoms like “Ph” and “Ac.”
Molecular building and predefined templates
- Merge molecules, add functional groups, or use abbreviated superatoms to represent recurring substructures.
- Insert ready-made structures from the template library for amino acids, carbohydrates, and aromatic compounds.
Import, export, and convert data
- Import and export to standard chemical formats like CDXML, MOL, RXN, SMILES.
- Perform name-to-structure and structure-to-name conversions using popular notations such as SMILES, IUPAC, and InChI.
Standardized journal templates and settings
- Use 10 + ACS-aligned journal templates to maintain consistency and adherence in scientific reports.
- Control bond lengths, atom labels, and text style for professional, publication-ready layouts.
Analysis and utilities
- Access built-in analytical tools for stoichiometry, 1H and 13C NMR shifts, and ADME reports.
- Label reactant and product ratios with Reaction Stoichiometry to simplify chemical balancing.
- Access handy tools like the Periodic Table and keyboard shortcuts to streamline your workflow.
Import, export, and integrate your chemical data across research tools
- ChemStudio understands chemical language names, formulas, and reactions.
- Import structures from files like MOL, SMILES, and InChI, or directly use CAS IDs and compound names.
- Export drawings to CDX, MOL, and SMILES formats for compatibility with other chemical software.
- Integrates with PubChem and Google Scholar for data lookup and literature search.
ChemStudio extension for Zoho Writer
With ChemStudio extension into Zoho Writer, you can draw chemical structures and add them directly to your document without leaving your writing workspace.
