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.
