Convert MOL to Markdown.

Drop a .mol or .sdf chemical structure file and read its molecule as plain Markdown. It runs entirely in your browser, so your file never leaves your device.

Optimize for AI & RAG

Extra cleanup for LLM ingestion: strip HTML, fix smart quotes, tidy Unicode and spacing.

Add YAML front matter

Prepend a metadata block (title, source, date, word & token counts) for knowledge bases and RAG.

Add table of contents

Build a linked index from the headings. Handy for long documents.

Export RAG chunks (.json)

Split the result into retrieval-ready chunks. Download per file from the result panel.

Most converters quietly upload your documents to a server. This one physically can't.

01Why

An atom block,
not a summary.

A MOL or SDF file stores a molecule as an atom block and a bond block full of coordinates. The converter reads that structure and writes the name, formula and counts as plain Markdown.

02Features

Everything you
actually need.

Chemical structure files in, clean Markdown out, with no server and no account anywhere.

It never leaves your browser

Your .mol or .sdf is read and parsed on your own device. Nothing is uploaded to any server, ever.

AI & RAG ready

Optional cleanup, YAML front matter, a table of contents and RAG chunk export.

Works offline

Once the page has loaded you can switch off your connection and it keeps converting.

Molecule, summarised

You get the molecule name, a derived formula and the atom and bond counts.

Unicode safe

Accents, symbols and non-Latin scripts come through intact as UTF-8.

Free, and unlimited

No sign-up, no quotas, no watermarks. Convert one file or a thousand; it all runs the same way, on your own device.

03Fidelity

What survives
the trip.

Honest about what comes through, and what doesn't. A multi-molecule SDF is summarised as a table, capped at 200 entries, so a large library stays readable.
