Introduction to MarvinView
MarvinView is an advanced chemical viewer for single and multiple chemical structures, queries, and reactions.
It has a rich (and growing) list of visualization features, is chemically aware and is able to call ChemAxon’s structure based calculation plugins for loaded structures.
Rich viewing:
-     
Wide range of file types supported: MOL, MOL2, SDF, RXN, RDF (V2000 / V3000), SMILES, SMARTS/SMIRKS (recursive), MRV, InChi, CML, PDB etc.;
 -     
Copy and paste between different viewers/editors;
 -     
Table, spreadsheet, and single molecule views;
 -     
2D/3D representation and animation;
 -     
Export option in graphic formats (JPG, PNG, BMP, POV, SVG, EPS, PDF, EMF);
 -     
Non-chemical data, such as SDF fields can be displayed;
 -     
User and developer definable visualization styles (colours, structure representations, etc.)
 
Chemically aware :
-     
Structure based calculations can be called directly from MarvinView. For a complete listing of functions please see the Calculator Plugins section;
 -     
Advanced stereochemistry functions (E/Z for double bonds, R/S for chiral atoms, ABS/OR/AND enhanced stereo labels, etc.);
 -     
2D cleaning;
 -     
3D conformer generation;
 -     
Isotopes, charges radicals, lone pairs, and aliases are supported;
 
Cross platorm delivery :
-     
Marvin can run on all major operating systems and is available in the following distributions:
-     
Java Applets can easily be implemented into Java enabled web pages without the need for the user to install software or plugins;
 -     
Java Beans can be directly installed to give standalone desktop applications and can also be used to integrate Marvin into Java based applications,
 -     
Java Web Start enables web delivery of end user applications;
 -     
.NET package makes it possible to integrate Marvin into .NET applications.
