Chemlets

Chemlets represent exercises built using HTML and Javascript integrated with RDKit that increase undergraduate and professional students’ exposure to molecular structures. The benefits of this educational tool are instantaneous feedback, a
multitude of easily generated examples, and streamlined algorithms for thinking about chemistry. Initially, chemlets will cover i) Resonance structures; ii) Cahn-Ingold-Prelog rules; iii) Functional groups; iv) Protonation and deprotonation.
