MoleculeSketch is a simple and easy to use drawing App for chemical formulas and reactions.

It has following features:
+ add atoms and bonds nicely by position locking (can be disabled)
+ choose different bond types (double, stereochemical, delocalised, etc.)
+ add bonds with higher hapticity
+ type functional groups by double-clicking on symbol
+ show missing hydrogen atoms depending on free valences
+ "grow" and remove hydrogen atoms
+ show non bonding electron pairs on heteroatoms
+ add reaction arrows and text fields
+ access drawing attributes from popover panels
+ calculate average mass and formula of molecules
+ group and arrange objects
+ change background color of drawing area and add a grid
+ copy/paste/cut molecules and drawings
+ paste drawings into other applications as pdf drawing
+ import from mol/sdf files
+ use trackpad gestures for zooming and rotation

Chem student

So I've been using this program for almost 2 years now and I love the new update. I'm a chemistry student and using ChemSketch in class was difficult since I couldn't use it on my laptop, since I've had Molecult Sketch, it does the same things and then some. Thank you for keeping up with the updates!! Sincerely one very content and stressed chemistry student. :)

Fantastic Program Worth Downloading

When I found this program, I immedaitely downlaoded it because I was desperate to find a program that could easily design complex organic molecules for my laboratory papers. For 4 years of my undergraduate career, I used this application religiously, and it was literally decreased my anxiety when it came to drawing molecules. I was even able to use this program for my inoragnic reserach presentations. I would highly recomend anyone going into Natural Sciences degree/career in getting this application.

Just what I needed and so cheap

I teach o-chem at a state college. The budget does not include drawing software. This little programs has everything I need and it seems like the devoloper is very responsive to feedback. I couldn't be happier. Its not a smooth as something like chemdraw, but it has all the basics and its not even a montly fee. Thank you!
