Hi, it's not clear why this should be necessary in general since
$CLIBD/atomsf.lib contains entries for both Zn & Zn+2:
Zn
30 30 1.304100
14.074300 7.031800 5.162500 2.410000
3.265500 0.233300 10.316299 58.709702
-1.612000 0.678000 0.222000 1.431000
Zn+2
30 28 0.780700
11.971900 7.386200 6.466800 1.394000
2.994600 0.203100 7.082600 18.099499
-1.612000 0.678000 0.222000 1.431000
Nevertheless in this particular the ionised form is no doubt more
appropriate than the elemental one.
But anyway shouldn't the atomic symbols go in cols 77-80, not 72-75?
i.e.:
123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012
34567890
ATOM 3048 CLBB DRG X 1 1.461 37.707 15.068 1.00 37.36
CL
ATOM 3155 O HOH H 318 -2.609 36.139 -25.338 1.00 48.47
O
HETATM 3156 ZN ZN A 981 4.451 8.580 3.686 1.00 31.06
ZN+2
Cheers
