MOLGEN is a computer program system which is designed for generating molecular graphs fast, redundancy free and exhaustively. In the present paper we describe its basic features, new features of the current release MOLGEN 3.5, and future developments which provide considerable improvements and extensions. 1 Introduction MOLGEN [1--7] is a generator for molecular graphs (=connectivity isomers or constitutional formulae) allowing to generate all isomers that correspond to a given molecular formula and (optional) further conditions like prescribed and forbidden substructures, ring sizes etc. The input consists of ffl the empirical formula, together with ffl an optional list of macroatoms, which means prescribed substructures that must not overlap, ffl an optional goodlist, that consists of prescribed substructures which may overlap, ffl an optional badlist, containing forbidden substructures, ffl an optional interval for the minimal and maximal size of rings, ffl an optional num...
