Category CHEMICAL_CONN_ATOM
Name:'CHEMICAL_CONN_ATOM'
Parent category:
CHEMICAL
Definition:
The CATEGORY of data items which describe the 2D chemical structure of
the molecular species. They allow a 2D chemical diagram to be
reconstructed for use in a publication or in a database search
for structural and substructural relationships. In particular,
the chemical_conn_atom data items provide information about the
chemical properties of the atoms in the structure. In cases
where crystallographic and molecular symmetry elements coincide
they must also contain symmetry-generated atoms, so as to describe
a complete chemical entity.
Category is of type Loop
