Hi,
In case you don't have a cif file for the ligand, I would load the SMILES 
expression into acedrg (or use any other input option) to create a cif file 
which you can then read into Coot.
Cheers,

Dear CCP4 Users,

I am working with data containing a possible complex of protein with
FESAN (iron bis(1,2-dicarbollide)). Unfortunately, to my knowledge, this
ligand is not available in PDB. The closest molecule is COSAN (cobalt
bis(1,2-dicarbollide)), which is labelled as CB5 and is available in two
PDB entries. I can load this molecule into Coot, but attempts at ligand
search or refinement of the manually matched molecule result in freezing
of the Coot window. FESAN is not present in CCDC as a single molecule,
but only in some complexes. Could you give me some advice on how to
prepare a new ligand like this one, for incorporation into the protein
and further refinement?

Best regards,

Rafal Dolot
