This software calculates the molar mass of compounds through command-line inputs.
Moleculator is an open source tool that provides an efficient way to calculate the molar mass of molecules by molecular formula. This application was primarily designed to save time and serve as an educational resource.
Using Moleculator, chemists from students to experienced synthetic researchers have access to a diverse range of useful options. The molecular formula should be entered in the C6H13N1 or C6H13N format, while arbitrary aliases such as Me for CH3 can be defined in /etc/moleculator_aliases for Linux and Mac.
Molecules can be entered on the command line, read from a file, or via pipe/file redirection. Additionally, error checking is implemented to prevent typos from becoming published errors. With any invalid entry, Moleculator generates an error message to stderr and a help message to stdout.
Moreover, this software supports deuterium internally and uses the symbol D to represent it. Moleculator is a useful tool for chemists to accurately and quickly calculate the molecular mass of a compound, saving researchers valuable time.
