Package org.openscience.cdk.fragment

Class ExhaustiveFragmenter

java.lang.Object

org.openscience.cdk.fragment.ExhaustiveFragmenter

All Implemented Interfaces:

IFragmenter

public class ExhaustiveFragmenter
extends Object
implements IFragmenter

Generate fragments exhaustively. This fragmentation scheme simply breaks single non-ring bonds. By default fragments smaller than 6 atoms in size are not considered, but this can be changed by the user. Side chains are retained.
