some new PTs for which images would be appreciated.[edit]

I've been doing some work on former user:Nuklear's List of phenyltropanes page in reflection of my cocaine analogues page, and the lack of images in comparison to the existing tables is growing more pronounced. Using the same old paper as always page 32 for the metal chelated radio-ligands of phenyltropanes, as well as pg. 41-through-45: namely the piperidine analogues and other alterations to the tropane ring (3-Phenyl-9-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane & 3-Phenyl-7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane to be specific). Think you could get around to these images sometimes? Just even an R-substitution image for the piperidines or where possible. Many thanks Ed, my additions wouldn't be as meaningful to me if not for your visual contributions that keep up with MoS in a way I never seem able to. ;-j Let me know if & when you may be able to once again assist me. Nagelfar (talk) 01:05, 28 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Also, there's one you did that's just a focus of interest because of its affinity; I noticed you omitted the stereochemistry in a few, but if you could just upgrade this image in particular so that it had the wedge bond on the beginning of the 3 tropane position so it's a 3-beta as shown in this image (you can put the wedge for the carbmethoxy at the beginning of the 2 tropane position to make it a 2 beta also for consistency) otherwise I think the image is great and I don't want it any different besides the two wedge bonds (keep the carbmethoxy drawn unlike the last image I linked where it just writes CO2CH3, etc.) yeah, just that styrene image updated to be shown as a 3-beta is the only change I'd value from what you've already contributed for me. Thanks again Ed. Nagelfar (talk) 21:04, 28 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
the benzene chelated phenyltropanes 21a & 21b on pg. 11 I would also appreciate images for; as they're unusual to depict. (figure 6 @ top & scheme 8 @ bottom even show them somewhat differently) Nagelfar (talk) 01:18, 1 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I should be able to get to all those in the next few days. Ed (Edgar181) 13:35, 1 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Awesome news, Ed, you're a wonder. Lookin' forward to 'em. Nagelfar (talk) 22:02, 2 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I think they are all done now. (I still have to tweak 21a though because it didn't export correctly from the drawing program.) They are all uploaded into Category:Cocaine analogs. Ed (Edgar181) 12:09, 3 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks Ed. File:Cocaine_analog_167a.svg came out with a white, instead of translucent, background for whatever reason. I noticed the same thing for analog 225e.svg File:Cocaine analog 225e.svg Nagelfar (talk) 20:03, 4 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
& if you're feeling up to it (seeing as you got on those so fast), if you could do the 2-Alkane/Alkene's also, that'd be great (i.e. compounds 41—47.... P.S. isn't the proper stereochemistry for 224e a solid black wedge bond at the carbmethoxy? You did a shaded one, they're both black in the image I gave above Perhaps just giving a new version of the "alt" overwriting the one you already gave to account for that; unless you noticed it was in error of course, but I assumed they were both of a beta stereochemistry in that one). Nagelfar (talk) 17:15, 5 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
You're right about 224e. Good catch. I've fixed it as well as the ones without transparency. And I've now created 41-47. Enjoy! Ed (Edgar181) 00:26, 6 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Great Ed. 47b.svg was named just that, not "cocaine analog 47b", took me a second to find it. I put in the "file name request" myself, hopefully that should sort it out. Thanks Ed. if there's any busy-work additions you'd like added to any WP page, e.g. tables for chemistry articles, values, figures, numbers (as long as it hasn't anything to do with image files. ;-P) feel free to ask and I'll be glad to help in whatever way I am able. I'm good at the rote, mundane and repetitive. (meaning: too mind numbing for anyone else to want to bother with) :p Nagelfar (talk) 19:02, 7 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Hey Ed, I was also wondering if I could get an R-substitution image covering all the vinylogous 2β analogues; you got them all for me individually but I'd like one for the table. ;j Best Regards, (additionally pg.24-25 has the TRODAT-1 & TROTEC-1 chelated analogs which I do not believe were part of the other group you did, which would be appreciated for the PTs page) Nagelfar (talk) 22:35, 10 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

OK, here is File:Cocaine analog 201.svg (I think that's what you wanted, but let me know if it's not). I'll get the others shortly. Ed (Edgar181) 02:57, 13 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Yes that's it! Looking forward to the other two. Thx as always Ed. (Oh and I made a couple new sub-categories at the 'cocaine analogs' common category: there is now a "phenyltropanes" sub-sections to the cocaine analogs section you started for those two images to go into.) Nagelfar (talk) 21:12, 13 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Subcategories are a good idea. The main category is getting large. I have now done TRODAT-1 and TROTEC-1. Ed (Edgar181) 03:22, 14 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Since you're so forthcoming, there's some more R-images if you wouldn't mind that I'd like to see on the page for a comprehensive consistency of the page's style: 211a-211g (the 4-iodo 2beta), 223a-223e & 223f-223i (just the carbamoyl with the R in the 4/para & in the 3/meta position on the other) the 224a-224c as shown at page 58 i.e. 3beta with the two bonds and the "(CH2)n" in-between. Just four that I notice for now. Thanks Ed. ;) Nagelfar (talk) 22:56, 15 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
No problem. All done. Ed (Edgar181) 15:43, 16 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Yikes! (thanks for keeping up with me Ed) I just got my own sorry attempts that never got the MoS right all nominated for deletion!
File:2-phenylmorpholine.jpg → replaced by File:2-phenylmorpholine.svg
File:Flumexadol.jpg → alternatives exist in Category:Flumexadol
File:C3hydroxycocaine.jpg

Think you can redo them and upload them from where they are at i.e. file renamed *.svg but in a way signaling that they're added as new example so the bot can do the transfer on the WP side so I don't have to find each instance and manually do it? OK if I have to though. ;-j Nagelfar (talk) 18:51, 17 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I can create the new images and replace them. I'll get to it today. Ed (Edgar181) 18:55, 17 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
It took a couple of days, but they are done now. I've uploaded them with the same file names, except svg at the end. Ed (Edgar181) 23:19, 19 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks Ed, however I just noticed I think you already did those and those must've been old versions I no longer used. The images I am thinking of that're still on there weren't the ones tagged for deletion. Oops. I'll try to be more observant if this happens again Nagelfar (talk) 23:59, 19 January 2016 (UTC) ;-p[reply]
Yeah, it appears the ones I am thinking of are just File:M-Isococ.jpg & File:C3benzyloxycocaine.jpg. My apologies, but these are the two remaining ones that aren't like the rest. ;-f Regards. Nagelfar (talk) 00:03, 20 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Besides those two: svgs of File:CocaineAnalogGNC.jpg, File:Hydroxytropacocaine.jpg, File:M-Hydroxybenzoylecgonine.jpg, File:Convolamine.jpg, File:K1-KLH-BSA.png, File:K2-KLH-BSA.png, File:CocaineNoncatalyticHapten394.png, File:CocaineNoncatalyticHapten395.png & File:CocaineNoncatalyticHapten396.png, would be sure to eliminate future scares of others tagging my existing article images as bad format for MoS. ;-P Just whenever you feel the motivation to help, those are the ones. :-p Nagelfar (talk) 21:12, 22 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
(oh and File:Phyllalbine.jpg, File:3′-methoxy-8-methyl-spiro(8-azabicyclo(3.2.1)octane-3,5′(4′H)-isoxazole.png, File:Tematropium.png, File:Spirocyclic_cocaine_analog.jpg from the Wikipedia (not commons) territory made for the commons, would be similarly greatly appreciated. ;-p (hope I'm not coming across as dumping it all at you, if you can't, no sweat ;-j ) Nagelfar (talk) 21:17, 22 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
oh and page four here if you could do those twelve under cocaine & fluoxetine (with the "E" = COOMe) and name them piperidinePT (and their compound number, 'PT' for "phenyltropane") that'd be **WONDERFUL**, heh, sorry for glutting your page with requests, but you've been my foundation with my pet WP chemistry page projects for some time now. ;-j Don't think it goes under-appreciated. Nagelfar (talk) 22:51, 22 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
And I already got this table done for some time now too, the para di-meta. Those are on my wishlist too. ;j
Got 'em before you even said anything Ed, THANKS!!! I think the K1/K2-KLH-BSA might have to be compromised with the text portion where it says "carrier protein" as it appears to get cut off on the program you use (perhaps just "c. protein" or a hard return after the word "carrier"?) also one more: File:Cocaine_N-oxide.jpg. Can't wait for the rest ;-j Nagelfar (talk) 21:47, 23 January 2016 (UTC)Nagelfar (talk) 00:53, 23 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Might as well throw Strobamine in there, since it needs to be *.svg too. ;j Nagelfar (talk) 00:54, 24 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, as always: Also thank you for the simultaneous update I got on a positive note, directly from your imparting of "autopatroller" to my status. Gave me a fond recollection of me at my grade school; it had a special program/category for especially well behaved students called "self-manager", we got to wear a hokey laminated pin-button with the school mascot on it (an owl). Heightened trust with hall passes or something of the like were the sole perks.... Well at the end of the 5th grade school year, I got small figurine & marble-based trophy, as I was one of only three students for my entire graduating year upon completion at that particular elementary school to have received the (honestly not coveted, as we were shunned as hopeless nerds, bhehe), we'll say 'prestigious', "self-manager" button every single year through, kindergarten to 5th. hehe. Wow, it all comes full circle. Nagelfar (talk) 19:14, 17 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think the "autopatroller" means all that much but your edits won't have a red exclamation point next to them anymore. Ed (Edgar181) 23:19, 19 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I think I got them all now. (Except for fixing K1/K2-KLH-BSA). Ed (Edgar181) 12:45, 24 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I've incorporated 'em all so far. I noticed it looks like Tamiz has a few more. (Good way to name them BTW) Nagelfar (talk) 22:17, 24 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Besides that one by Tamiz above, I might have quite a few phenyltropanes for you, I've just about finished all the extant tables from Singh's paper for the PTs; but if I set you to work on the ones I want from those it'll just be a long standing wish-list (perhaps have it done by 2017) that you can get around to only if it kills down time for you. ;-P Nagelfar (talk) 21:53, 26 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Methylphenidate analogs[edit]

Actually, before attempting the cyclopean myopic and arduous task of the phenyltropane images, perhaps we can slay the smaller Goliath of the methylphenidate images that are all lambasted "badJPGs" of mine:


Anyhow thank you Ed!!! Nagelfar (talk) 21:35, 6 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

If the given structure, from image alone, confuses you just double-check my list of MPH analogs for a context of what each one is. Thanks Ed!!!! Nagelfar (talk) 22:02, 27 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I'll start with the Tamiz ones above in a day or two, then get to this list, and then you can give me the big list of phenyltropanes. Ed (Edgar181) 02:14, 28 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
You make WP enjoyable for me. I mean that, I'm at a roadblock due to only being able to access the regional library computers otherwise (no downloads, no drawing program). Nagelfar (talk) 03:28, 28 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I'm glad to help. Ed (Edgar181) 15:27, 28 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Three benztropines pique my interest too; namely page #66, structures no. 276, 277 & 278 (mostly 'cause the last one is more of an isomer of a straight descarbmethoxy cocaine analogue proper, than a benztropine. It doesn't give the values or a table for those three, so I didn't get to them before when I was doing them). Nagelfar (talk) 18:45, 28 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
BTW there's already an analogs section for MPH under the subheading of the MPH wiki-Commons *here*, benztropines also has it's own analog section separate from the other stimulants (all your work I transcluded) Nagelfar (talk) 22:45, 29 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Prototyp UR-50[edit]

Hi, I send you this message to ask if you could change the name of the Category:Prototyp UR-50. When I've created that category I've made a mistake while writing. The correct name is Prototyp UR-P50 (I've skipped a letter :D :D :D). Thank you very much.

Greetings! --Luc106 (talk) 21:41, 17 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. I renamed the category and moved the images into the new name. Ed (Edgar181) 15:40, 18 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Back to the old cocaine analog list[edit]

I found a cocaine analog proper (not PT) which I overlooked from back when we went through those exhaustively: top left of page 56 compound 217 (talked about on the third paragraph of the first column of page #57(978) "Cocaine methiodide"). I made room for its image on the table already. ;-j Nagelfar (talk) 22:28, 29 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

(while you're at it, I can't bring myself to use the same image in the table right below the style of how I have them laid out in the table for the images that don't have R-substitution images, and for consistency, I was hoping you could make a file name "alt" variant of 4-iodo-2-hydroxy with the O2 of the benzoyloxy spun up like this old bag JPG and the same for your two 1 naphthyl and 2 naphthyl as is shown at this 'bad' JPG and my other bad JPG; so it demonstrates how at a glance, alternate 2D renderings of those can make the 1-nph look like the 2-nph and vice versa.) Hope I'm not dumping *too* much on ya before you get around to what is already on your plate. ;-j thanks Ed. Nagelfar (talk) 22:36, 29 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
#203 on pg.51 is a cocaethylene intermediate that would be nice to have also. As well as pg. 91-93 with the hapten intermediates 400, 407 & 410 Nagelfar (talk) 22:13, 30 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
(My apologies for glutting your talk page with requests; I've been doing a lot of work overhauling three or so list pages) I just noticed that "Cocaine analog 238a" of the benzylidene derivatives of 6-alkyl-3-benzyltropanes #984 (60th page) (moved to below) was overlooked. Need that one too. Nagelfar (talk) 22:40, 30 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
(when you get time, might as well make an R-image for 229, 230, 231, 232, (a-f; just the R image for each one) and we also forgot 241 somehow.) Nagelfar (talk) 22:53, 30 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
219b looks like a methoxy but the table (and the orig. ref.) says it's an acetyl. Is this correct? (such a 2D rendering still technically an Ac?) Nagelfar (talk) 00:00, 31 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

(BTW still expecting you to, before all this malarchy, start with the Tamiz additions from above (*ahem* I mean Carrol, thanks Ed!), at your own pace, of course) hehe. ;-j Nagelfar (talk) 20:04, 2 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

(which I'm hoping you will get to, at least, before the 10th, because I most likely am headed into a facility for at least a month with a high chance of not having internet access there. I have an OTC medication dependence that my out patient counselor has made stipulations about me getting off of for my state subsidized housing to continued to be funded. It's a rather unprecedented addiction (loperamide, 200mg a day for over a year) of which they've never had a case of before. Wish me luck.) Nagelfar (talk) 03:46, 3 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I just want to let you know that I'm not ignoring you. I'm reading your messages and I should have time to get started on them soon beginning with the Tamiz compounds (I know I said that before ....) Ed (Edgar181) 16:28, 4 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I figured as much, knowing what a forthcoming sort you are and have been with my requests. My only apology was getting too ahead of your ability to get through what I have posited to you from earlier. Anyhow, my disappearance on the 10th is an actual fact of the matter, and this, my largest healthy outlet, being taken from me may well be the greatest hardship for me in that case. ;-p Nagelfar (talk) 21:54, 4 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I'll fix FlexedRingD-Threo-Methylphenidate.png and Methyl_2-morpholin-3-yl-2-phenylacetate.jpg tomorrow and probably get a bunch more too. And thanks for catching my spelling error. Ed (Edgar181) 02:20, 7 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Of course, no worries, I'm as OCD spectrum as any of the most thorough Wikipedians are. ;-j Nagelfar (talk) 05:03, 7 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Well, yes, past the tenth and not in treatment; won't take you in without a dirty UA, can you believe it? My out-patient is probably going to get on my case, but what the hey, eh? I wikified one above that I forgot, to make it noticeable. i.e. ""Cocaine analog 238a" of the benzylidene derivatives of 6-alkyl-3-benzyltropanes #984 (60th page)" (P.S. the naphthyls & iodo-hydroxyl weren't exactly what I meant, but I made a .png of each to replace my jpg; I wanted the ester on the 3 position flipped, so the naphthyl'd have a different orientation, but no worries; that wasn't a major issue to begin with ;-j ) Nagelfar (talk) 21:32, 13 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Ed, noticed an interesting analog variant: methyl (1S,2R,3S,5R)-3-(benzoyloxy)-6-methyl-6-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octane-2-carboxylate (near the bottom) with similar here & here, if you could help out with a single image like those of the methylated nitrogen at the six position and the bridged-eight-position nitrogen & methyl removed as per those images. Nagelfar (talk) 20:08, 14 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Since I consider the cocaine analogues page my magnum opus I'd like to convey my hope that you heed my requests concerning it as taking precedent (the PTs are just an, albeit important, offshoot IMHO FWIW) esp. since at this point in the game these are more subtle & minute in scope to deal with and easier to tackle for you in the meantime. ;-j So perhaps, since my pngs turned out ugly, you could make updated images of those naphthyl alternates you recented did for the cocaine 188 & 187 with the benzoate ester turned around instead of the carbmethoxy ester so turned? (compare those in the table with those above it (just click here to get the gist): remake ones as depicted below in my pngs (in your wonderfully clear style as above, of course) or both esters turned would be better for the sake of contrast). Also I noticed File:Cocaine_analog_222.svg is rendered wrong: you made it p-iodo when in-fact it is not aryl substituted so-ever, and while you're in the swing of it could you give me an R image for the non-planar compound 199a & b: just a wavy line off of the isoxazole with an "R" where the carbethoxy is would be wonderful just like figure 31. Warmest appreciation and thanks for all you've done, as always Ed. Nagelfar (talk) 13:51, 17 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the compound #222 fix Ed. Nagelfar (talk) 14:16, 25 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Wrong formula for Sedaxane[edit]

Dear Edgar, your formula for Sedaxane is wrong https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Sedaxane.svg The substitution pattern on the phenyl ring is ortho, not meta. Kind regards — Preceding unsigned comment was added by 2A02:168:5C59:0:C96:9DA2:DE84:7D42 (talk) 21:34, 08 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It looks like User:Kopiersperre has already fixed it. Thanks for catching the error and reporting it. Ed (Edgar181) 17:38, 9 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Hey you two, I noticed that entry was only in the German language WP; did my best to start the English WP page for it. Regards, Nagelfar (talk) 10:39, 21 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Looks good. Thanks for creating it. Ed (Edgar181) 23:59, 23 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Wouldn't the chembox be more appropriate than the drugbox? --Leyo 17:41, 24 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I think so. I have now changed it. Ed (Edgar181) 18:20, 24 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Not-corrected image[edit]

You closed Commons:Deletion requests/File:Benzofuran.jpg noting that "creator has uploaded a corrected version at File:Benzofuran.png". PNG is better than JPG (and better than an SVG container around a JPG), but the chemical mistake is actually still present under the last reaction arrow. DMacks (talk) 15:24, 24 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I'd recommend placing {{Disputed chem}}. The user is likely to upload a corrected version. He has corrected the error at other locations and has probably just missed this one. --Leyo 17:32, 24 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
DMacks, you're right I didn't notice there was one that wasn't fixed. If the uploader doesn't fix it soon, as Leyo suggests, I will. Ed (Edgar181) 18:20, 24 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Ed, question on where to pose this request where it is likely to get acknowledged...[edit]

Wikipedia:Template talk:Collapsible list#Collapsing multiple objects simultaneously that are in different places of the page/article.

I wrote: "Is it possible to have a "show" button that will un-collapse, for instance, bundled images that are in different places on an article (in a table, specifically)? My specific issue is that my structure images in my tables spread out the table quite a bit, and if there were a single point at which they could all get bundled, so the table's values could be referenced more easily, it'd be a wonder. (EDIT: let me know if I am explaining myself clearly on what it is I suggest, and whether or not it can be utilized with the extant template wiki-codes in current use or if the idea is viable in a new template of some kind)" see what I am trying to get implemented? Nagelfar (talk) 16:31, 1 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I understand what you are asking, but I don't know of any way to do that. I would suggest asking either at w:en:Wikipedia:Help desk where general questions about editing Wikipedia can be posed, or at w:en:Wikipedia:Village pump (technical) where editors with more techinical experience are most likely to see it.

Interesting opioid Compounds[edit]

PTI-609, the talk section has a link to the full article. Can you find the structure of it Ed? apparently it binds to a novel opioid domain that doesn't accrue opioid tolerance. Nagelfar (talk) 01:30, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed it looks like an interesting compound, but as far as I can tell, the chemical structure of PTI-609 has not yet been publicly disclosed. It is still very early in the clinical study process. Ed (Edgar181) 15:15, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I was thinking as much myself. Nagelfar (talk) 21:16, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Check this one Ed: FAUC50, covalent binding monoamine template. Dopamine given as example; irreversible dopamine agonist. Nagelfar (talk) 22:41, 8 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Ojanatirtho (talk · contribs)[edit]

Hi, Edgar. Do you think, that uploads of Ojanatirtho are useful? Probably Commons has them all in .svg. Taivo (talk) 16:05, 4 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

No I don't think any of them are useful. There are existing higher quality equivalents for each of them. I marked most with {{Low quality chem}}, renamed some that had meaningless names, and nominated one for deletion. They could probably all be deleted. Ed (Edgar181) 14:55, 7 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Need help with some senseless reverts.[edit]

Hey Ed, user DMacks has reverted two separate, considerate, edits on my part at metaphit, the second time threatening to "block" after only putting a 'see also' to Fourphit, which is simply the para variant of metaphit, both are isothiocyanates of PCP, can you vouch for me here that a "see also" in such an instance is *not* "original research" based on molecular structural grounds, not to mention the shared domain of research had for both compounds? Thanks Nagelfar (talk) 22:34, 17 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Even found this to prove my meager 'see also' is not OR: "Metaphit (an isomer of Fourphit containing the isothiocyanate moiety at the meta position of the aromatic ring)" Nagelfar (talk) 23:05, 17 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I have interacted on Wikipedia with DMacks many times and have always found him to be completely reasonable (as well as a very knowledgeable chemist). In this case, I don't see any problems with linking the two articles to each other as you have done. I'll leave him a note on his talk page. Ed (Edgar181) 12:00, 18 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Many thanks on the arbitration in this Ed, I figured you'd have had interaction with him as he's well established and it was likely you had a good rapport. Somewhere (I can't remember when) I must have run afoul of him (he said "want to get banned *Again*"; never noticed I was blocked from any page if I was; obviously I wasn't so worried about controlling the content that I went back to see) perhaps a mistaken identity case? I admit there was one time that I wasn't acclimated to all the WP rules (back in the first few years of WP) but those 'learning' edits weren't ever chemistry related. Anyhow, I explained myself on his page for the original edit that he may have found off putting and perhaps lent to his not assuming good (or apt) faith in the matter of rightly editing the page. My first edit was a bit unconventional, but my second wasn't a blatant defiance of his revert but an honest attempt at compromise. Glad to know I can come to you with trivial matters too. ;-j Nagelfar (talk) 19:21, 19 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
As indicated in the edit summary for this edit, I think he mistakenly confused you with someone else. Ed (Edgar181) 17:49, 20 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Well that's good to know. Nagelfar (talk) 16:47, 29 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Give a man a fish... VS. Teach a man to fish...[edit]

Ed, if you ever discover an online (needn't be downloaded 'cause there's no downloads @ public library; a prog. a la [1]) *.svg image program that (easily < automatically) adheres to MoS rules for molecular images please pass it along to me (or any sufficient online way, what steps I need to take, to get it to adhere and have it optimally rendered in SVG; a screen capture program in SVG or an online utility that cleanly & optimally converts from *.png to *.svg if it doesn't save as). Not asking for a search but if one gets noticed from your end, I'd make *a lot* of use of it. ;-j Nagelfar (talk) 20:23, 19 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know of any online resources that can do that. I use Marvin Sketch to draw chemical structures and save them .svg format. It's not perfect - there are times when it misplaces text labels when saved, for example. If I ever come across something like what you're looking for, I'll definitely let you know. Ed (Edgar181) 17:47, 20 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Strange the online 'Marvin Beans' can't seem to have its settings made to emulate Marvin Sketch better: it draws the tropane fundamentally different. Nagelfar (talk) 19:37, 21 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Novel alkaloids by the boatload[edit]

New Caledonia: A ' Hot Spot' for Valuable Chemodiversity: DOI: 10.1002/cbdv.201400389

^I notice you seem to focus on images of novel compounds yet elucidated upon, and this above paper seems to have them in droves! Enjoy! Nagelfar (talk) 16:19, 29 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

That's a nice review. Lots of interesting compounds discussed. Ed (Edgar181) 21:48, 13 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Oreobeiline is closer to morphine than the morphinan skeleton. Interesting. Nagelfar (talk) 20:00, 16 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Latrunculines[edit]

Hello Edgar, could you do me a favor and draw Latrunculin G and Latrunculin H for the german Wikipedia article? The table says they are N-hydroxymethyl-derivatives of Lat. A and B, so it should be no big effort. --Nothingserious (talk) 08:45, 19 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Nothingserious: It is no trouble. I created them and placed them in Category:Latrunculins. Regards, Ed (Edgar181) 13:54, 19 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Great, thank you! --Nothingserious (talk) 18:50, 19 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect Structures[edit]

Hi Ed, I just tagged three of your drawings as disputed:

Each of them misses an "O" in the Methylsulfate-Ion. Hope it is no big deal to correct them. Greetings --Mabschaaf (talk) 18:19, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, you are right. I drew them as mesylate rather than methylsulfate salts. I have uploaded a correction to the svg and uploaded new svg replacements for the other two. Thanks for catching the errors and letting me know. Ed (Edgar181) 15:48, 29 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted file[edit]

Hi,

could you send me this deleted file please? I placed its original files on commons with a good wish for a good usage. Firstly I was pushed to replace them, by this writing and now even the writing is deleted also. Id like to use these files elsewhere if Commons community doesnt wont them. You can use e-mail: juandevojnikov at gmail.com. Thx.--Juandev (talk) 14:57, 3 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Done. Ed (Edgar181) 20:21, 3 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Request for SVG: racemic 2-amino-4,5-hexadienoic acid A.K.A "allenic norleucine"[edit]

This a common mushroom toxin that causes kidney failure. It is interesting because it is a cumulene natural product! Please upload an SVG of it as this toxin is mentioned many times on wikipedia! 67.80.102.170 04:06, 5 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Here it is: File:Allenic norleucine.svg. Ed (Edgar181) 13:27, 6 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
thank you!

Awesome work on compounds lately, Ed.[edit]

I've been looking at some of the other things you've been doing in terms of visual contributions and discovering some amazing compounds; Lasofoxifene, RU-22930, and they're really teaching me and piquing my interest. If I knew how to award silly barnstar type things in a meaningful way, you'd have a few ;-j Nagelfar (talk) 22:13, 17 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I hope to get to some more of phenyltropanes soon. Ed (Edgar181) 19:01, 22 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Weird bond-style at File:Octaazacubane.svg[edit]

The "back" edges look like wedged bonds, but also they re-start the wedge shape where they pass behind the front bonds. Could you make them simple lines (with gap where hidden) or somehow else avoid the "two separate wedges" appearance? DMacks (talk) 20:26, 21 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I'm surprised I didn't notice it - why did the drawing program do that? I'll fix it soon. Thanks for letting me know. Ed (Edgar181) 19:02, 22 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
