Maximally bridging rings are shown with spheres (purple and gray). Purple spheres represent bridgehead atoms. Gray spheres represent non-bridgehead atoms within the maximal bridging ring. Click-and-drag the left mouse button to rotate. Use the mouse scroll wheel to zoom.

Algorithm run with Minimum Ring Size: 3, Maximum Ring Size: 8, Maximum Bridge Length (including bridgehead atoms): 8, Maximum Number of Rings: 4 (note that more than this number of rings may be returned in the event of a tie (multiple rings with the same number of bridging atoms)).

A description of the Maximal Bridging Ring Detection algorithm will appear in Marth CJ, Gallego GM, Lee JC, Lebold TP, Kulyk S, Kuo K, Qin J, Lilien R, Sarpong R, "Network Analysis Guided Approach to the Total Synthesis of the C-18 and C-19 Diterpenoid Alkaloids Weisaconitine D and Liljestrandinine" [under review].
