In addition to the other drawing programs for chemical compounds which were mentioned here the past couple days, there appears to be a new program(s) worth looking into, just announced this month, but according to the article appearing in Macweek News (3/5/91) not due to ship until JUNE 91. The program is called "ISIS/Draw" (Integrated Scientific Information System) and will be available for both IBM/compatible and MAC systems, as well as VAX/VMS and other systems, according to the article. It is suppose to have chemical intelligence that "understands the chemistry behind reactions", and warns the user when valence limits are exceeded. Additional program information: ISIS/Draw, $495 (mac application) Molecular Design Ltd. 2132 Farallon Drive San Leandro, Calif. 94577 Tele: (415)895-1313 (800)635-0064 Fax: (415)352-2870 [I know nothing about this program or company other than what I have read in the Macweek news article (3/5/91). I just wanted to pass along the information to others who might be interested.] Ken Peters Peters@Mayo.edu (internet)
