About Structures in E-mails.
There is a format called SMILES which allowes structures to be encoded/de=
coded
for sending in E-mails. For instance:
O=C(O[C@@H]2[C@@H]([C$##$H](C)C)CC[C$##$H](C)C2)[C$##$H]1[C$##$H](C(O)=O)C1
when cut out and pasted in for instance CS ChemDraw as PasteSpecial-SMILE=
S
would decode the structure which in this case is the mono-(+)-menthyleste=
r of
(1R,2R)-cyclopropane-1,2-dicarboxylic acid. I guess other chemical
structure-drawing programs have same feature. Do you people have these
capacities in your programs? If so this would be a good way of exchanging
structures.
