HomolyticCleavageMechanism (cdk 2.9 API)

java.lang.Object
- org.openscience.cdk.reaction.mechanism.HomolyticCleavageMechanism

All Implemented Interfaces:

IReactionMechanism
```
public class HomolyticCleavageMechanism
extends Object
implements IReactionMechanism
```
This mechanism breaks the chemical bond between atoms. Generating two atoms with attached radicals. It returns the reaction mechanism which has been cloned the IAtomContainer.

```
    Initiates the process for the given mechanism. The atoms to apply are mapped between reactants and products.
    
    Specified by:
    
    initiate in interface IReactionMechanism
    
    Parameters:
    
    atomContainerSet -
    
    atomList - The list of atoms taking part in the mechanism. Only allowed two atoms. Both atoms acquire a ISingleElectron
    
    bondList - The list of bonds taking part in the mechanism. Only allowed one bond
    
    Returns:
    
    The Reaction mechanism
    
    Throws:
    
    CDKException - if an error occurs during the reaction process. See documentation for individual reaction processes
