## PubChem Similarity (Fingerprint) Search

### Description

Accepts one `SDFset` container and performs a >0.9 similarity PubChem fingerprint search, returning up to 200 hits in an `SDFset` container. The ChemMine Tools web service is used as an intermediate, to translate queries from plain HTTP POST to a PubChem Power User Gateway (PUG) query. If the input object contains multiple items, only the first is used as a query.

### Usage

    searchSim(sdf)

### Arguments

`sdf` | A `SDFset` object which contains one compound

### Value

`SDFset` | for details see ?"SDFset-class"
