Dear Paolo

Thanks very much for your continuous help. I'm not sure I like the idea of
explicitly defining the valence, so I'll consider switching to
FragmentOnBonds(). From the example you gave previously though, it quenched
the fragments with dummy atoms rather than hydrogen. Is it possible to
quench with hydrogen using FragmentOnBonds()?

Kind regards
Puck
