PLAT411


PLAT411 Type_2 Test for short non-bonding inter H..H contacts
 Short intermolecular H..H contacts may indicate incorrectly determined 
 structures (i.e. wrong symmetry, missed translation symmetry, wrong position   
 with reference to the symmetry elements, hydrogen atoms on atoms where there   
 should not be any  etc..)  
 Short intermolecular contacts may be indicative for inconsistent symmetry  
 data (e.g. coordinates for space-group P43 and symmetry specified as P41 or
 P21/n & P21/c confusions). Short contacts are defined using a van der Waals
 radius of 1.2 Angstrom. For intermolecular contacts, an alert is generated 
 for contacts less than 2.4 Angstrom.
