Alias

• Checker searches for aliases in the structure.

• Fixers:

  • converting alias to abbreviated group if the alias value corresponds to a group in the abbreviated group list * (aliastogroup);

  • converting alias to atom if the alias value corresponds to an element (e.g., Ar) (aliastoatom);

  • removing alias (revealing the atom under the alias) ** (removealias);

  • deleting the atom having alias information (removeatom).

  Example :

  Alias Checker (alias)	Warning:	Fix
  		Convert Alias to Group (aliastogroup)	Convert to Atom (aliastoatom)	Remove Alias (removealias)	Delete Atom (removeatom)
  Detect Alias	ex_alias_ch	convert ot group	convert to atom	ex_alias_frem	ex_alias_fdel

{primary} "OMe" and "CL" were defined as alias. After converting "OMe" to methoxy group, the abbreviated group is linked correctly to the chain, i.e., bond through the oxygen atom.

^*User defined abbreviated groups are also available to be applied as recognizable abbreviated group set.

^**Alias only covers the atom, and fixer removes this alias from the original atom.
