Detailed Description

Stereochemical configuration for square planar stereocenters.

The config struct represents the stereochemistry in a well defined way. For squareplanar stereocenters, the following data members define the spacial arrengement of the atoms.

OBStereo::Ref center: The central atom.
OBStereo::Refs refs: The 4 atoms connected to the double bond.
OBStereo::Shape shape: The shape formed by the refs by connecting them in the same order as they occur in refs.

Only center are specific for OBSquarePlanarStereo::Config. The other data members occur in all OBTetraPlanarStereo derived classes.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ Config() [1/2]

Config ( )

inline

Default constructor. Initializes center to OBStereo::NoRef and shape to OBStereo::ShapeU.

◆ Config() [2/2]

Config	(	unsigned long	_center,
		const OBStereo::Refs &	_refs,
		OBStereo::Shape	_shape = `OBStereo::ShapeU`
	)

inline

Constructor with all parameters.

Parameters

_center	The atom id for the central atom.
_refs	The 4 reference ids.
_shape	The shape for the 4 reference ids.

Member Function Documentation

◆ operator==()

bool operator== ( const Config & other ) const

Equal to operator. Comparing OBSquarePlanarStereo::Config structs is done using the information stored in the struct's data members (i.e. center, refs and shape).

There are a number of cases resuling in false being returned:

center atom ids don't match
One of the Refs lists does not contain 4 elements.
2 or more OBStereo::ImplicitRef values in a single Config struct
(The two refs don't share a single common element)

In the simplest case where both refs contain exactly the same elements (OBStereo::ContainsSameRefs()), coould include OBStereo::ImplicitRef), both Config struct are normalized to OBStereo::ShapeU starting with the same element. After this normalization, there are two possible orientations to overlay the shape on the double bond. From the illustration below, it can be seen only refs[2] has to be checked in order to conclude both Config structs have the same stereochemistry.

 1   4    1      4    1------4
  \ /     |      |           |
   C      |      |           |
  / \     |      |           |
 2   3    2------3    2------3

          1 2 3 4     1 2 3 4
          |   |       |   |      <- in any case, refs[0] & refs[2] remain unchanged
          1 2 3 4     1 4 3 2

When comparing a Config struct with explicit hydrogen(s) to one with implicit hydrogen(s), both refs are also normalized to OBStereo::ShapeU starting with the same common element. This shared element cannot be OBStereo::ImplicitRef. Depending on the position of the OBStereo::ImplicitRef element(s) in the refs, 3 cases are possible:

 refs[2] != OBStereo::ImplicitId:

   (analog to the case above where they contained the same elements )

   1 2 3 4
   |   |      <- refs[0] & refs[2] remain unchanged
   1 H 3 H

 else:

   1 2 3 4
   |     |    <- refs[0] & refs[3] remain unchanged
   1 H H 4

   1 2 3 4
   | |        <- refs[0] & refs[1] remain unchanged
   1 2 H H

In each case, the orientation of the U shape is also defined since there can be only one OBStereo::ImplicitRef for each side of the double bond.
