A NOTE ON STEREODIAGRAMS OF MOLECULES

Abstract

The paper elucidates a simple way of deriving the coordinates for drawing stereo, diagrams of molecules. This method is an alternative, but not a substitute, to the ORTEP (suggested by C. K. Johnson) which is extensively used in the literature. Illustrations are given using a program which was written based an the method mentioned here. The program is also given in an appendix for practical help.
