  "definition": "SDF stands for Structure Data Format, a standardized textual data file format developed by MDL, Inc. that is a de facto industry standard for structure and data import/export in Chemical Relational Database (CRD) applications. An SDF file stores a chemical structure as a table of atomic coordinates, bond connections, and bond types, followed by standard data/text fields associated with that structure. An SDF file can be opened as a text file by word processing applications, and is capable of storing an unlimited number of structure/data records in the same file.
