From a thread on this list (May 2009:
http://archive.contextgarden.net/message/20090512.132914.5c29b5f4.en.html)
I gather that whereas colouring a whole molecule works fine, colouring
groups within a chemical structure is not yet fully implemented in mkiv.
Is that still correct?
Putting colour on atoms works with {\blue C} etc. or "\defineprocessor
... etc. chemred->C" etc.. However, I couldn't find a way to colour the
bonds belonging to the group. Is there one?
ppchTEX does a superb job and I hope that the most useful features will
be implemented in the near future in mkiv!
Jörg

The only way that I managed to do this is to draw the chemical twice and to
use overlays (or to trick the bounding box using left=,right=,top=,bottom=).
It would be nice to be able to draw colored bonds, perhaps with the syntax:
\chemical[SIX,rulecolor=blue,SB1,rulecolor=black,SB2..6][]
The problem is that we usually don't mix single tokens with token=val.
(but Hans has broken this rule with an experimental feature: Z1=C, currently
broken as it converts C to lowercase...)
For now, rulecolor= can only be specified in \startchemical or \setupchemical.
Maybe we can discuss this with Hans off-list?
