Grapheme TK

2D structure diagrams can be considered to be the “natural language” of chemists, since the graphical representation allows molecules to be instantly conceivable.

Historically, 2D representations have mainly been used to visualize the connection table of molecular graphs. However, projecting 3D information into the 2D layout and displaying various atom and bond properties on the molecular diagram opens up a novel way to present information to chemists.

The Grapheme TK provides several representation schemes that allow visualization of complex molecular interactions and properties in a clear and coherent 2D format that is the most natural to chemists.
