Tutorial 2: Building<br />

Models with the Bond<br />

Tools<br />

Draw ethane using a bond tool.<br />

1. Click the Single Bond tool .<br />

2. Point in the model window, drag to the right<br />

and release the mouse button.<br />

A model of ethane appears. When you rotate<br />

the model in a later step, you will see the other<br />

hydrogen.<br />

You can work with the model in Chem3D. The 2D<br />

and 3D models are hot-linked, so any change in one<br />

changes the other:<br />

1. Double-click one of the hydrogens in the 3D<br />

model.<br />

A text box appears.<br />

2. Type OH in the text box, then hit the Enter key.<br />

3. A phenol molecule is displayed in both the<br />

Chem3D model window and the ChemDraw<br />

window.<br />

NOTE: If you are using default settings, hydrogens<br />

are displayed automatically.<br />

To see the three-dimensionality of your model you<br />

can perform rotations using the Trackball tool. The<br />

Trackball Tool mimics a sphere in which your<br />
