Abstract
We analyze in this article the degree to which different groups of atoms retain local symmetries when assembled in a molecule. This study is carried out by applying continuous symmetry measures to several families of mixed sandwiches, a variety of piano-stool molecules, and several organic groups. An analysis of the local symmetry of the electron density shows that, sandwiched between two regions of different symmetry that correspond to the ligand sets, its symmetry is cylindrical at the central metal atom.
