iupac-to-smiles

iupac-to-smiles is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from InternScience/ChemClaw. It costs 34 tokens per session (2,023 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A name-to-structure converter that turns IUPAC chemical names into SMILES strings, a compact text format for molecular structures. It also handles some polymer names and can return formula and molecular weight for ordinary compounds.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to convert single names, polymer names, or batches of names into SMILES and to generate polymer structure descriptions.
Why use it?
It bridges the gap between a human-readable chemical name and the structure format needed by many chemistry tools.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

iupac-to-smiles scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 10d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/iupac_to_smiles.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

IUPAC Name to SMILES Converter

将 IUPAC 化学名称转换为 SMILES 字符串,完全使用 OPSIN API,支持聚合物智能解析。

触发条件

  • 用户提供 IUPAC 名称并要求转换
  • 提到"SMILES"、"化学名称转换"
  • 说"name to smiles"、"IUPAC 转 SMILES"
  • 提到聚合物名称(如 poly[...]

功能

  • 完全使用 OPSIN API(剑桥大学)- 不再依赖 PubChem
  • 聚合物智能解析 - 自动识别 poly[...]poly(...) 格式
  • 单体提取 - 从聚合物名称中提取单体并解析
  • 连接基团识别 - 自动识别 oxy、thio、imino 等连接基团
  • 批量转换 - 支持多个名称同时转换
  • 分子信息 - 返回分子式、分子量等(普通化合物)
  • 聚合物说明 - 生成聚合物结构说明

聚合物解析逻辑

对于聚合物名称如 poly[oxy(1-methylethylene)]

  1. 识别聚合物前缀: poly[...]
  2. 提取括号内容: oxy(1-methylethylene)
  3. 解析连接基团: oxy → 氧原子 -O-
  4. 解析单体: 1-methylethylene → 通过 OPSIN 转换为 SMILES
  5. 组合结果: 生成聚合物 SMILES 和说明

支持的连接基团

名称 SMILES 说明
oxy O 氧桥 -O-
thio S 硫桥 -S-
imino NH 亚氨基 -NH-
carbonyl C=O 羰基
ester C(=O)O 酯基
amide C(=O)N 酰胺基

使用方法

对话框中使用

把 ethanol 转成 SMILES
IUPAC: 2-hydroxypropanoic acid,转 SMILES
poly[oxy(1-methylethylene)] 转 SMILES
批量转换:ethanol, benzene, poly[oxyethylene]

命令行使用

# 单个名称转换
python3 scripts/iupac_to_smiles.py --name "ethanol"

# 聚合物转换
python3 scripts/iupac_to_smiles.py --name "poly[oxy(1-methylethylene)]"

# 从文件读取
python3 scripts/iupac_to_smiles.py --input names.txt --output results.json

# 指定输出格式
python3 scripts/iupac_to_smiles.py --name "aspirin" --format csv

参数说明

参数 简写 说明 默认值
--name -n 单个 IUPAC 名称 -
--names -N 多个名称(逗号分隔) -
--input -i 输入文件(每行一个名称) -
--output -o 输出文件路径 自动生成

What ships with it

3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

iupac-to-smiles is a skill published in the GitHub repository InternScience/ChemClaw (52 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 34 tokens to every session and 2,023 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
