Visual Cue Narration
Slide Number 1

Title Slide

Hello everyone.

Welcome the tutorial on Editing Molecules in GChemPaint.

Slide Number 2

Learning Objectives

In this tutorial, we will learn to
  • Add unbound electrons on an atom
  • Draw Carbonic acid and Sulphuric acid structures.
  • Add and modify a local charge on a group of atoms
Slide Number 3

Learning Objectives

We will also learn to,
  • Add and modify a local charge on an atom
  • Add cyclic molecules
  • Convert mono-cyclic molecules to bi-cyclic molecules.
Slide Number 4

System Requirement

Here I am using

Ubuntu Linux OS version. 12.04

GChemPaint version 0.12.10

Slide Number 5

Pre-requisites

To follow this tutorial you should be familiar with,

GChemPaint chemical structure editor.

If not, for relevant tutorials, please visit our website.

In the Property menu

>>make the Bond length value to 200 or above.

In the Property menu,

increase the Bond length value to 200 or above.

Click on H2S to draw three bonds. Click on H2S to draw three bonds of OH to S.
Point to positive charge near S. Observe a positive charge near S.

This appears because Sulphur has to satisfy valency of 6.

Click on S and drag the bond to a side without releasing the mouse. For the fourth bond, first click on S .

Now drag the bond to one side without releasing the mouse.

Point to any 2 opposite bonds. Now let's convert the opposite bonds into double bonds.
Click on

Add a bond or change the multiplicity of the existing one tool

>>click on the existing bonds.

Click on

Add a bond or change the multiplicity of the existing one tool.

Then click on the opposite existing bonds of the structure.

Point to the structure Note that the positive charge is no longer visible.

Sulphuric acid structure is complete.

Next let's add a local charge on the Carbonic acid and Sulphuric acid structures.
Click on Decrement the charge of an atom tool. To show local charge, Click on Decrement the charge of an atom tool.
Click on two O-H groups. Click on the two O-H groups of the Carbonic acid structure.

  • Add a four membered cycle
  • and some more cycle tools and then
  • Add a cycle.
Point to Add a four membered cycle tool We will use Add a four membered cycle.
Click on Add a four membered cycle tool
