What is it about?

It has been suggested in the literature that computer-assisted structure elucidation systems would fail when elucidating structures containing more than 30 skeletal atoms. We have performed a comprehensive investigation of the capabilities of the expert system Structure Elucidator. The results of performing the structure elucidation of 250 complex natural products are described and shown to be successful to over 100 skeletal atoms.

Why is it important?

The capabilities of CASE systems have been severely underestimated over the years and the present performance of the CASE system ACD/Structure Elucidator exceeds most peoples expectations.
