Hi Greg,
Thanks for your fast reply. I've got two examples of ferrocene MOLfiles,
generated by MarvinSketch in KNIME, from ferrocene.cdxml (found somewhere
in the rdkit github repo), the other one from the ferrocene template in
Marvin. But actually they are almost the same.
The third example is Pd(dba)2 (also from Marvin's template library). As you
can see, the attachment is made via a dummy atom placed where the bond is
drawn (middle of Cp ring or middle of double bond).
Best regards,
Michal
