Problem:
How to get the Topological Diameter of my structure in Chem3D
Solution:
In Chem3D top menu bar go to Calculations and select "Compute Properties"
- Expand "Molecular Topology"
- Select Topological Diameter.
The Diameter (D) calculation: is the maximum such value for all atoms, and is held by the most outlying atom(s). Examples: Diameter: methane = 0; ethane = 1; propane = 2; n-butane = 3.
