Frequently asked questions
Is the Reagent quick table template free?
Yes. The Reagent quick table template is one of the free MolDraw templates: open it in the editor or download it from this page as SVG or PNG and use it in your slides, worksheets and notes.
Can I edit the Reagent quick table template?
Yes. It opens as an ordinary MolDraw drawing, so every structure, arrow, label and colour can be changed, and you can add your own content around it.
Is the chemistry checked?
Every structure is checked with RDKit and every curly arrow passes MolDraw’s electron-flow audit. The sources used are listed on this page.
What is on the solvent properties card?
Boiling point, density, polarity and water miscibility of the common lab solvents.
