conversion of SMILES to Labels fails for some adsorbates

Open bjkreitz opened this issue 3 months ago • 0 comments

Bug Description

When generating a mechanism with RMG for a surface catalyzed reaction, RMG does not accurately convert the SMILES string of some species to the label. See the image below

The expected labels would be H2X(18) instead of [H][H].Pt and COHX(22) instead of O[C]#Pt. It works in most cases and I wasn't able to find a pattern among the species where it doesn't work.

This leads to some weird formatting in the YAML files, but it is still possible to work with it.
