_chemical_formula.structural
Name:_chemical_formula.structural
Alias:
_chemical_formula_structural
Definition:
This formula should correspond to the structure as reported, i.e.
trace elements not included in atom type and atom site lists should
not be included. See category description for the rules for writing
chemical formulae for inorganics, organometallics, metal complexes
etc., in which bonded groups are preserved as discrete entities
within parentheses, with post-multipliers as required. The order of
the elements should give as much information as possible about the
chemical structure. Parentheses may be used and nested as required.
This formula should correspond to the structure as actually reported,
i.e. trace elements not included in atom-type and atom-site lists
should not be included (see also _chemical_formula.analytical).
Examples:| '(Pt (N H3)2 (C5 H7 N3 O)2) (Cl O4)2' |
| 'Ca ((Cl O3)2 O)2 (H2 O)6' |
