Object Synopsis

molecule -- object representing a molecule

Description

A molecule object represents a molecule. It contains, as constituent parts, atom and bond object. It also contains cycles, a derived object.

Molecules are created in two ways: by reading in a SMILES string (dt_smilin(3)), or by allocating an empty molecule object (dt_alloc_mol(3)) and filling in its atoms and bonds.

Molecules can be contained as component parts of a reaction object. They can be added to a reaction (see dt_addcomponent(3)) or may be created as part of a reaction with dt_smilin(3). A molecule which is a component of a reaction will have the reaction as its parent object.

Molecule objects have a number of properties; see the Daylight Programmer's Manual for a general explanation.
