	| Dear Tom, 
 molfiles V3000 don't use a 'chiral' flag. If you open your molfile in DataWarrior, you will notice that it shows an absolute stereo center. Of course, DataWarrior uses the correct Y-direction for molfiles, which is indeed inverted in comparison to most other xy-orientations. CFG=3 is a down bond and coordinates are correctly created leading to an R-isomer. ChemDraw does the same. I am afraid that ChemDoodle created the wrong CFG entry here.
 
 Best wishes,
 
 Thomas
