Class AtropStereoDescriptor

All Implemented Interfaces:
CIPStereoDescriptor

Descriptor representing atrop stereo information. That is, the rotation of two aromatic rings connected by a single bond (axis), and at least 3 of the ligands in the ring connected to the axis has a non-ring ligand.

  • CIPStereoValue.AtropStereoValue.ODD means that if we watch the molecule in the direction of the axis, and the ligand with the maximum index from the ligand connected to the axis is in the back, then from the higher indexed of the two ligands in the front the higher indexed in the back is clockwise.
  • CIPStereoValue.AtropStereoValue.EVEN means that if we watch the molecule in the direction of the axis, and the ligand with the maximum index from the ligand connected to the axis is in the back, then from the higher indexed of the two ligands in the front the higher indexed in the back is counter-clockwise.
  • CIPStereoValue.AtropStereoValue.UNKNOWN means that it can not be decided if it is clockwise or counter-clockwise, but there is no wiggly bond - like a 2D structure without wedge information..
  • CIPStereoValue.AtropStereoValue.WIGGLY means that there is a wiggly bond on either ligand in the ring connected to the axis, or the axis is wiggly.
