This chapter focuses on step 3. For step 1, descriptors may include property values, biological properties, topological indexes, and structural fragments. The performance of these descriptors and forms of representation have been analyzed by Brown and Brown and Martin. Similarity searching for step 2 has been discussed by Downs and Willett characteristics of various similarity measures have been discussed by Barnard, Downs, and Willett. " For step 4, little has been published specifically about visualization and analysis of results for chemical data sets. Flowever, most publications that focus on implementing systems that utilize clustering do provide details of how the results were displayed or analyzed. 

The title compound was prepared by thermal decomposition of the monoclinic dihydrate FeP04-2H20. The solid-state preparation reaction is likely responsible for the poor crystallinity, and therefore, peak broadening. The inadequate crystallinity of the material results in the insufficient accuracy of both the peak positions and intensities. A serious lack of resolution in this particular powder diffraction pattern, which occurs due to the physical state of the powder, translates into considerable problems in both the indexing and structure determination. When experimental data collected using Cu Ka radiation were employed in the ab initio indexing, ITO and TREOR runs did not result in a reasonable solution.

The Chemical Abstracts System (CAS) produces a set of various databases ranging from bibliographic to chemical structure and reaction databases. All the databases originate from the printed media of Chemical Abstracts, which was first published in 1907 and is divided into different topics. Author index, general index, chemical structure index, formula index, and index guide arc entries to the corresponding database (Table 5-3).

Theoretical and structural studies have been briefly reviewed as late as 1979 (79AHC(25)147) (discussed were the aromaticity, basicity, thermodynamic properties, molecular dimensions and tautomeric properties ) and also in the early 1960s (63ahC(2)365, 62hC(17)1, p. 117). Significant new data have not been added but refinements in the data have been recorded. Tables on electron density, density, refractive indexes, molar refractivity, surface data and dissociation constants of isoxazole and its derivatives have been compiled (62HC(17)l,p. 177). Short reviews on all aspects of the physical properties as applied to isoxazoles have appeared in the series Physical Methods in Heterocyclic Chemistry (1963-1976, vols. 1-6). 

Although values of emittance and absorptance depend in very complex ways on the real and imaginaiy components of the refractive index and on the geometrical structure of the surface layer, the gener-ahzations that follow are possible. 

Strkcttire inflkence. The specificity of interphase transfer in the micellar-extraction systems is the independent and cooperative influence of the substrate molecular structure - the first-order molecular connectivity indexes) and hydrophobicity (log P - the distribution coefficient value in the water-octanole system) on its distribution between the water and the surfactant-rich phases. The possibility of substrates distribution and their D-values prediction in the cloud point extraction systems using regressions, which consider the log P and values was shown. Here the specificity of the micellar extraction is determined by the appearance of the host-guest phenomenon at molecular level and the high level of stmctural organization of the micellar phase itself.

Ionic liquids have been described as designer solvents [11]. Properties such as solubility, density, refractive index, and viscosity can be adjusted to suit requirements simply by making changes to the structure of either the anion, or the cation, or both [12, 13]. This degree of control can be of substantial benefit when carrying out solvent extractions or product separations, as the relative solubilities of the ionic and extraction phases can be adjusted to assist with the separation [14]. Also, separation of the products can be achieved by other means such as, distillation (usually under vacuum), steam distillation, and supercritical fluid extraction (CO2). 

The n-d-M correlation is an ASTM (D-3238) method that uses refractive index (n), density (d), average molecular weight (MW), and sulfur (S) to estimate the percentage of total carbon distribution in the aromatic ring structure (% C ), naphthenic ring structure (Cj,), and paraffin chains (% Cp). Both refractive index and density are either measured or estimated at 20°C (68°F). Appendix 4 shows formulas used to calculate carbon distribution. Note that the n-d-M method calculates, for example, the percent of carbon in the aromatic ring... 

As a consequence of the irregular and rough structure of the xylan particles, entanglements between particles are promoted and this fact may explain the poor flow properties of this polymer (Kumar et al., 2002 Nunthanid et al., 2004). Additionally, rheological parameters of xylan powder have also been studied, such as bulk and tapped densities, Hausner ratio, Carr s index, and angle of repose values, and they are summarized in Table 1.
