Structure Checker : Alias

  • Checker searches for aliases in the structure.
  • Fixer offers:
    1. converting alias to abbreviated group if the alias value corresponds to a group in the abbreviated group list  *  (aliastogroup);
    2. converting alias to atom if the alias value corresponds to an element (e.g., Ar) (aliastoatom);
    3. removing alias (revealing the atom under the alias)  **  (removealias);
    4. deleting the atom having alias information (removeatom).


Example :

Alias Checker (alias) Warning: Fix
Convert Alias to Group (aliastogroup) Convert to Atom (aliastoatom) Remove Alias (removealias) Delete Atom (removeatom)
Detect Alias ex_alias_ch convert ot group convert to atom ex_alias_frem ex_alias_fdel


Note : "OMe" and "CL" were defined as alias. After converting "OMe" to methoxy group, the abbreviated group is linked correctly to the chain, i.e., bond through the oxygen atom. 
* Note :  User defined abbreviated groups  are also available to be applied as recognizable abbreviated group set. 
** Note : Alias only covers the atom, and fixer removes this alias from the original atom.
