This package provides the \chemfig{<code>} command which draws the 2D
representation of a chemical molecule. The <code> describes the
drawing using an easy, flexible and intuitive syntax.
The drawing is made with the tikz package. Therefore, Chemfig works
in dvi or pdf mode.

Cette extension fournit la commande \chemfig{<code>} qui dessine la
repr\'esentation en 2D d'une mol\'ecule chimique. Le <code> d\'ecrit
le dessin selon une syntaxe simple, souple et intuitive.
Le dessin est fait avec l'extension tikz. ChemFig fonctionne donc en
mode dvi ou pdf.

chemfig – Draw molecules with easy syntax
The package provides the command \chemfig{<code>}, which draws molecules using the TikZ package. The <code> argument provides instructions for the drawing operation.
While the diagrams produced are essentially 2-dimensional, the package supports many of the conventional notations for illustrating the 3-dimensional layout of a molecule.
The package uses TikZ for its actual drawing operations.
