ABSTRACT
This work introduces CGRdb2.0âan open-source database management system for molecules, reactions, and chemical data. CGRdb2.0 is a Python package connecting to a PostgreSQL database that enables native searches for molecules and reactions without complicated SQL syntax. The library provides out-of-the-box implementations for similarity and substructure searches for molecules, as well as similarity and substructure searches for reactions in two waysâbased on reaction components and based on the Condensed Graph of Reaction approach, the latter significantly accelerating the performance. In benchmarking studies with the RDKit database cartridge, we demonstrate that CGRdb2.0 performs searches faster for smaller data sets, while allowing for interactive access to the retrieved data.
