Kerber, Adalbert; Laue, Reinhard; Meringer, Markus; Rücker, Christoph Molecules in silico: potential versus known organic compounds. (English) Zbl 1081.92047 MATCH Commun. Math. Comput. Chem. 54, No. 2, 301-312 (2005). All molecular structures for organic compounds with molecular weight up to 150 are generated by means of a previously designed computer program MOLGEN. It is found that the majority of so generated structures do not correspond to known chemical compounds. In other words: the majority of possible chemical compounds has not yet been prepared in laboratory.
