Package: chents Type: Package Title: Chemical Entities as R Objects Version: 0.4.2 Date: 2026-07-03 Authors@R: c(person("Johannes", "Ranke", role = c("aut", "cre", "cph"), email = "johannes.ranke@jrwb.de")) Description: When working with data on chemical substances, we often need a reliable link between the data and the chemical identity of the substances. The R package 'chents' provides a way to define an R object corresponding to a chemically defined substances, i.e. a chemical entity and to collect related information. If Python and 'RDKit' (> 2015.03) are installed and configured for use with 'reticulate', some basic chemoinformatics functions like the calculation of molecular weight and plotting of chemical structures in R graphics are available.
