From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Molecules I have made and are currently in use unless otherwise noted.
I would appreciate a comment or concern by clicking here!

How I make them
Process for creating the 3D molecules is as follows:
1. Create 3D molecule in Ghemical running on Linux based on chemical 2D skeleton
2. Use auto-tool to properly arrange the molecule
3. Check molecular weight and empirical formula with Ghemical to ensure proper creation
4. Using OpenBabel export in to a PDB (Protein Data Bank) file
5. Save the project and close Ghemical
6. Using QuteMol running through WINE open the PDB file and animate it
7. Save the GIF file
8. Upload the GIF animated molecule to Wikipedia Commmons and edit the drug article to display it.
Process for creating the 2D molecules is as follows:
1. Set BKChem settings following WikiProject Chemistry's structure drawing guidelines
2. Draw molecule in BKChem
3. Export molecule as SVG
