I've recently have had to start writing papers with significant amounts of chemistry in them. I simply use the mhchem package which supports all types of chemical notation... org is quite happy with it for simple entries although you may need to @@...@@ escape more complex entries. However, if you wanted something portable, i.e. that could export to other targets, then this won't help you. Sorry! -- : Eric S Fraga (0xFFFCF67D), Emacs 24.4.1, Org release_8.3beta-1136-g0e7062
