Chemputer: isotope pattern calculator
Notes
- Enter a formula. As examples WCl{P(OMe)3}(CO)2Cp, C4H8Br2, [Mo(CO)6], Ph3SnCl all work
- You can use C* for 13C, D for deuterium, and T for tritium
- The formula is case sensitive. So h2o will fail but H2O will work
- Correctly nested brackets [{()}] are OK
- A few pseudoelements including Me, Ph, Dppm, and Cp are OK
- Compound names and element names such as water or iron are not OK
- The results will show the most intense line set to 100 %, standard practice in mass spectrometry
