Bond property options
The properties you can assign to bonds are described below.
Bond types
This property specifies the bond type of the selected bonds. The default bond type corresponds to the current type of
the bond (single, double, etc.) as drawn.
Single (all) and Dative. Finds compounds with the bond type you select for the selected bonds.
Double or Double Bold. Finds compounds whose selected bonds are double.
Double Either. Finds compounds whose selected bonds are double bonds and have either cis/trans stereochemical
configuration.
Aromatic. Finds compounds whose selected bonds are aromatic.
Tautomeric. Finds compounds whose selected bonds are tautomeric.
Triple. Finds compounds whose selected bonds are triple.
Quadruple. Finds compounds whose selected bonds are quadruple.
Any. Finds compounds regardless of the bond type of the selected bonds.
S/D. Finds compounds whose selected bonds are single or double.
D/A. Finds compounds whose selected bonds are double or aromatic.
S/A. Finds compounds whose selected bonds are single or aromatic.
Note: Not all bond types are supported in all file formats. When an unsupported bond type is saved to a given file
format, it is converted to the closest equivalent that is supported.
Topology
The Topology property specifies the ring environment of the selected bonds.
Unspecified. Default. Finds compounds regardless of topology.
Ring. Finds compounds where the selected bonds are part of a ring.
Chain. Finds compounds where the selected bonds are part of a chain (but not part of a ring).
Ring or Chain. Finds compounds where the selected bonds are part of either a ring or a chain.
