The InChI Trust and the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) are pleased to announce the release of a new version of the IUPAC International Chemical Identifier (InChI) software. Version 1.04 of the open source software is now available on the InChI Trust Download page. This version now supports the chemical elements up to 112, copernicium (the last one which is currently recognized by IUPAC; support for elements 105-112 is newly added). The inchi-1 executable (both Windows and Linux versions) now allows the processing of multiple input files in a single run (common file name wildcards are recognized).
The InChI Certification Suite is now available from the InChI Trust. This software was developed to check that an installation of the InChI program has been performed correctly. More information on the InChI Certification Suite and the contact information can be found here.
New InChI working groups on “Inorganics” and “Biopolymers & Proteins” are planned for 2012.
