Category CHEMICAL_CONN_BOND

Name:
'_chemical_conn_bond_[]'

Definition:

   Data items in the _chemical_conn_atom_ and _chemical_conn_bond_
   categories record details about the two-dimensional (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.

   The _chemical_conn_bond_ data items specify the connections
   between the atoms in the _chemical_conn_atom_ list and the nature
   of the chemical bond between these atoms.

Example:

Example 1 - based on data set DPTD of Yamin, Suwandi, Fun, Sivakumar & bin Shawkataly [Acta Cryst. (1996), C52, 951-953].
