File: nciopen3d.mol.Z (compressed with the UNIX command compress) The structures in this file are the compounds of the open open part of the NCI database (nciopen.mol) plus the 3D-atomic coordinates as an MDL SDFile. The compressed file takes about 34 MByte, the uncompressed file about 180 MByte. The coordinates were generated by the 3D-structure generation program Corina. Lacking stereodescriptors were added by the program in order to fulfil simple geometric requirements, i.e., there is no guarantee for finding the stereoisomer with lowest energy. Statistics of the Corina run: Corina version 1.5 (December 1994) Platform: Silicon Graphics Indigo 2 running IRIX 5.2 CPU time: 33650 sec - 0.27 sec/mol Structures read: 126705 compounds - 100.0% Structures converted: 126089 compounds - 99.5% Structures excluded due to atoms having more than six neighbors: 327 compounds - 0.3% Structures not converted due to internal problems: 289 compounds - 0.2% References on Corina: (1) Sadowski, J.; Gasteiger, J.
