Chemical graph generators are software packages to generate computer representations of chemical structures adhering to certain boundary conditions . Their development is a research topic of cheminformatics . Chemical graph generators are used in areas such as virtual library generation in drug design , in molecular design with specified properties, called inverse QSAR/QSPR , as well as in organic synthesis design , retrosynthesis or in systems for computer-assisted structure elucidation (CASE). CASE systems again have regained interest for the structure elucidation of unknowns in computational metabolomics , a current area of computational biology .
