UniChem XYZ chemical modeller input file
File type: Various data file
A .unixyz file is an input file for the UniChem chemical modelling software.
It contains molecular structure data in an XYZ-style representation for use during chemical modelling.

The UniChem XYZ chemical modeller input file belongs to UniChem, a specialist chemical modelling program. The format is intended to provide molecular structure information to the software.
The file normally represents a molecule using atom identifiers and three-dimensional Cartesian coordinates. UniChem reads this information as input when creating or processing a molecular model.
Open a .unixyz file with UniChem, the chemical modelling program for which it was created. Use the program's file-open or import command and select the UNIXYZ input format if it is not detected automatically.
Because this is a specialized input format, a general text editor may display its contents but will not interpret the molecular structure or provide useful modelling functions.
A UNIXYZ file is an input format, so conversion should normally be performed from within UniChem, using its import or export commands and a molecular-structure format supported by that installation.
If UniChem is unavailable, conversion is only practical when another chemistry program explicitly supports this input format.
