Tetracenomycin C 3D structure[edit]

The perspective in File:Tetracenomycin C Mercury.tif makes it difficult to see many of the 3D geometric details (the methoxy of the ester, the methoxy-enone on the left-hand ring, and the two adjacent hydroxyl stereocenters at the lower-left). The whole point of a 3D diagram is to clarify the 3D nature of the structure, and I think these geometric details substantially interfere in that use. Is this specific conformation based on experimental evidence? There's also a hydrogen missing from the hydroxyl group on the middle ring. DMacks (talk) 00:22, 3 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
