Here is another rendering of that molecule in its cyanocobalamin (pharmacy shelf) form. https://youtu.be/zLyyQh-e9lM?feature=shared

Thanks!

Here it is:

“Infographic titled "Today in Chemistry History" for Dorothy Hodgkin's birthday (12 May 1910). It highlights her Nobel Prize-winning work in X-ray crystallography to determine structures of penicillin, vitamin B12, and insulin. Their chemical structures are shown.”
