Web Browser Compatibility Internet Explorer Firefox Mozilla Netscape Safari Opera Marvin applets can run in all Java capable browser.
Applet Specific Features Using Swing GUI components, the appropriate version for the browser / JRE is automatically selected Signed (trusted) applets enable access to local files, system clipboard and allow printing. Applet API accessible from JavaScript to fetch the current structure from the applet and send it to the server for further processing. change the structure or display options of the applet without reloading the page.
Custom Marvin Applets Layout You can specify actions to buttons in the Marvin Applets.
Developing with Marvin Beans Use Marvin Beans to add MarvinSketch or MarvinView as a graphical component to your standalone application Additional API is accessible for - Import / Export - Performing calculations with plugins - 2D and 3D cleaning of structures - All operations accessible in the GUIs are also available in the API. Developing with Marvin Beans
Molecule Sketching Features Easy sketching Click-drawing, sprout Templates, aliases, pseudo atoms Toolbars, shortcuts Stereo features: tetrahedral (R/S) double bond (E/Z) diastereomer (Abs/And/Not) Reaction (Inv/Ret) Groups Abbreviated, multiple, repeating unit, generic, polymer related groups On-the-fly expanding Bold bonds for projected drawing Bracket objects for Sgroups Attached data Textboxes Graphic objects (arrows, boxes, ellipses, brackets) Curved electron arrows Multi-page layout Rich compound format: Fonts, colors, bond thickness Journal drawing styles to load/save 3D sketching A quick review about Marvin features.

MarvinSpace Integration Properties calculated by plugins can be visualized using MarvinSpace
Query and General Chemistry Features Query design features Generic atoms, generic bonds Atom lists/not lists Query properties: hydrogen count, connection count, number of explicit connections, ring count, smallest ring size, ring bond count, substitution count, unsaturation, aromatic/aliphatic atom Topology (ring/chain) Reacting center R-group queries R-logic Position variation Link node Recursive SMARTS Basic chemistry functions: Automatic valence check Automatic lone pair calculation Automatic stereo configuration (R/S, E/Z) Automatic reaction component identification Automatic reaction mapping Conversion between aromatic and Kekulé form Cleaning 2D layout 3D geometry optimizationn Structure checker Automatic error checking Optional fixes for errors Searching in online databases ChemSpider exact search A quick review about Marvin features.
R-group Queries R-groups support is useful for query drawing.
Structure Cleaning You can customize cleaning with various options. Cleaning Options 2D optional optimization wedge bonds cleaning 3D fast clean find low energy conformer optional hydrogenization generate conformers CC(C)NCC(O)COC1=C2C=C(C)NC2=CC=C1 topology You can customize cleaning with various options. 2D 3D
Display Conformers Using the conformers plugin one can generate the most likely 3D structures and select a suitable one The corresponding energies are also calculated for a given conformation By selecting the Edit->Clean->3D- >Select conformer menu option, you can choose among them.

Advanced (plugin based) Functions Elemental Analysis IUPAC Name Protonation (pKa, Major Microspecies, Isoelectric Point) Partitioning (logP, logD) Charge (Charge, Polarizability, Orbital Electronegativity) Isomers (Tautomers, Resonance, Stereoisomers) Conformation (Conformers, Molecular Dynamics) Geometry (Topology analysis, Geometry, Polar surface area (2D), Molecular Surface Area (3D)) Markush Enumeration Other (H-bond donor/acceptor, Huckel Analysis, Refractivity)
Calculator Plugins ChemAxon’s plugin loading mechanism enables Marvin to provide access to a wide range of dynamically loaded calculation tools A set of plugins already provided by ChemAxon for a separate license key (single trial is included in every distributions for plugins) Users can easily add their own calculator plugins to this framework
2D & 3D Structure Visualization Accurate representation Rich visualization options Various display modes (wireframe, ball&stick, spacefill, etc.) Enable/disable hydrogen visibility (explicit / implicit, on hetero and/or terminal) Optional display of stereo information Various rotation modes Optional valence and reaction error highlighting in sketcher Several display options are common in sketcher and in viewer.
Further Display Features In viewer, structures can move. Single structure or table views Animated views in viewer
Molecule Matrix View Display SD files with property fields (Re)customize table layout: visible rows and columns; font size (Re)scale molecules in cells separately or uniformly MarvinView application can display property fields of SD files.
Spreadsheet View Display structures and data field in the same row Resizable and movable columns Search and edit in data fields Fast loading and scrolling of huge SDFiles MarvinView application can display property fields of SD files.
Summary ChemAxon MarvinSketch and MarvinView are chemically aware, flexible applications enabling the chemist to draw and display chemical structures and to perform predictive calculations. Marvin Beans and Marvin Applets allow developers to integrate these tools into standalone and web applications.
