ChemDraw / ChemOffice 22.2 Release Announcement

It is my pleasure to announce the release of ChemDraw and ChemOffice 22.2. This release contains improvements and enhancements that support hydrogen bonding and HELM. The key new features include:

Expanded Hydrogen Bond support in the areas of perception and handling. H-Bonds are now exportable to 3MF and are handled in 3D cleanup. In addition, H-bonds are now perceived as distinct entities for ring perception. Finally, they are preserved on import/export from a round-trip editing process in ChemDraw Desktop.
New Modalities (HELM): RNA base monomers are now coloured based on their natural analogue when rendered in Sequence Graphic Monomer documents in ChemDraw.

Other updates:
Side-by-side installation of ChemDraw/ChemOffice has been removed
Support has been added for Conflex 9 Rev B in ChemDraw 3D
A 64-bit version of Chem3D is now available as part of the standard installation of ChemOffice

ChemDraw JS 22.2 will also be released with this package. It contains several performance updates to improve overall rendering and data handling and updates to enable cross-platform image support.

Product Compatibility
ChemDraw / ChemOffice 22.2 is qualified against the following:

Windows 10 (64-bit) and Windows 11 (64-bit)

ChemOffice

Bringing Your Molecules to Life with ChemDraw

ChemOffice is a Desktop suite of the most advanced capabilities of the ChemDraw products.

Have you ever wished you could easily and quickly communicate your chemistry research and reporting in 3D without the cumbersome process of using specialized software? Now you can. ChemOffice allows you to paste a live 3D rendering of your molecule natively in PowerPoint, as well as save molecules as 3D printable objects.
Wouldn’t it be nice to see if the chemical structures you have drawn already exist in the patent literature? ChemOffice integrations with Google Scholar and Google Patents allow you to quickly and easily access the most relevant and up-to-date information.
Would having immediate safety information, including H&P Phrases as well as GHS Pictograms, at your fingertips safeguard your research? With integration to PubChem Laboratory Chemical Safety Summary (LCSS), you can.

ChemOffice offers the best of all of the ChemDraw capabilities rolled into one. Learn more about all of the powerful drawing capabilities or test it out for yourself.
