$MACCSKeys = $MACCSKeys->GenerateMACCSKeys();
Generates MACCS keys fingerprints and returns MACCSKeys.
For MACCSKeyBits value of Type, a fingerprint bit-vector string containing zeros and ones is generated and for MACCSKeyCount value, a fingerprint vector string corresponding to number of MACCS keys is generated.
MACCSKeyBits or MACCSKeyCount values for Type option along with two possible 166 | 322 values of Size supports generation of four different types of MACCS keys fingerprint: MACCS166KeyBits, MACCS166KeyCount, MACCS322KeyBits, MACCS322KeyCount.
Definition of MACCS keys uses the following atom and bond symbols to define atom and bond environments:
Atom symbols for 166 keys [ Ref 47 ]:
A : Any valid periodic table element symbol
Q : Hetro atoms; any non-C or non-H atom
X : Halogens; F, Cl, Br, I
Z : Others; other than H, C, N, O, Si, P, S, F, Cl, Br, I
Atom symbols for 322 keys [ Ref 46 ]:
A : Any valid periodic table element symbol
Q : Hetro atoms; any non-C or non-H atom
X : Others; other than H, C, N, O, Si, P, S, F, Cl, Br, I
Z is neither defined nor used
Bond types:
- : Single
= : Double
T : Triple
# : Triple
~ : Single or double query bond
% : An aromatic query bond
None : Any bond type; no explicit bond specified
$ : Ring bond; $ before a bond type specifies ring bond
! : Chain or non-ring bond; ! before a bond type specifies chain bond
@ : A ring linkage and the number following it specifies the
atoms position in the line, thus @1 means linked back to the first
atom in the list.
Aromatic: Kekule or Arom5
Kekule: Bonds in 6-membered rings with alternate single/double bonds
or perimeter bonds
Arom5: Bonds in 5-membered rings with two double bonds and a hetro
atom at the apex of the ring.
MACCS 166 keys [ Ref 45-47 ] are defined as follows:

MACCS 322 keys set as defined in tables 1, 2 and 3 [ Ref 46 ] include:
o 26 atom properties of type P, as listed in Table 1
o 32 one-atom environments, as listed in Table 3
o 264 atom-bond-atom combinations listed in Table 4
Total number of keys in three tables is : 322
Atom symbol, X, used for 322 keys [ Ref 46 ] doesn't refer to Halogens as it does for 166 keys. In order to keep the definition of 322 keys consistent with the published definitions, the symbol X is used to imply "others" atoms, but it's internally mapped to symbol X as defined for 166 keys during the generation of key values.
