INDEX chemical structure

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). 

As in the case of density or specific gravity, the refractive index, n, for hydrocarbons varies in relation to their chemical structures. The value of n follows the order n paraffins < n naphthenes < n aromatics and it increases with molecular weight. 

The systematic lUPAC nomenclature of compounds tries to characterize compounds by a unique name. The names are quite often not as compact as the trivial names, which are short and simple to memorize. In fact, the lUPAC name can be quite long and cumbersome. This is one reason why trivial names are still heavily used today. The basic aim of the lUPAC nomenclature is to describe particular parts of the structure (fi agments) in a systematic manner, with special expressions from a vocabulary of terms. Therefore, the systematic nomenclature can be, and is, used in database systems such as the Chemical Abstracts Service (see Section 5.4) as index for chemical structures. However, this notation does not directly allow the extraction of additional information about the molecule, such as bond orders or molecular weight. 

The WLN was applied to indexing the Chemical Structure Index (CSI) at the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI) [13] and the Ituiex Chemicus Registry System (ICRS) as well as the Crossbow System of Imperial Chemical Industries (ICl). With the introduction of connection tables in the Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) in 1965 and the advent of molecular editors in the 1970s, which directly produced connection tables, the WLN lost its importance. 

If the indexing of the atoms is changed, the CT will have a different appearance. Thus, the representation of a chemical structure in a CT is unambiguous but not unique, which can only be achieved by canonicalization (see below). 

The lUPAC rules are not the only nomenclature system in use today Chemical Abstracts Service sur veys all the worlds leading scientific journals that publish papers relating to chemistry and publishes brief abstracts of those papers The publication Chemical Abstracts and its indexes are absolutely es sential to the practice of chemistry For many years Chemical Abstracts nomenclature was very similar to lUPAC nomenclature but the tremendous explosion of chemical knowledge has required Chemical Abstracts to modify Its nomenclature so that its indexes are better adapted to computerized searching This means that whenever feasible a compound has a sin gle Chemical Abstracts name Unfortunately this Chemical Abstracts name may be different from any of the several lUPAC names In general it is easier to make the mental connection between a chemical structure and its lUPAC name than its Chemical Abstracts name... 

Chemical Designation - A list of common synonyms is given. Synonym names are alternative systematic chemical names and commonly used trivial names for chemicals. An index of synonyms is provided at the end of the handbook to assist the reader in identifying a particular chemical and researching chemical hazards information in the event that the common name of the chemical is not known. The data field also contains the chemical formula. The chemical formula is limited to a commonly used one-line formula. In the case of some organic chemical compounds it has not been possible to represent the chemical structure within such limitation. 

An infrared beam is directed through a crystal of refractive index (ni) onto a sample of smaller refractive index (n2). The intensity of the reflected beam is monitored as a function of the wavelength of the incident beam. These absorptions are used to identify the chemical structure. ATR has a sampling depth of about 0.3-3.0 microns.

The color index (Cl) number, developed by the society of dyers and colorists, is used for dye classification. Once the chemical structure of a dye is known, a fivedigit Cl number is assigned to it. The first word is the dye classification and the second word is the hue or shade of the dye. For example, Cl Acid Yellow 36 (Cl 13065) is a yellow dye of the acid type. Additionally, a dye mixture may consist of several dyes for example, Navy 106 is composed of three reactive azo dyes remazol black B (Reactive Black 5), Remazol Red RB (Reactive Red 198), and Remazol Golden Yellow 3. 

Some studies relative to the influence of Lewis bases,124-127 1,3-diethers in particular,125-127 and the MgCl2 support have also been recently reported. The dependence of the industrially relevant isotactic indexes on the chemical structure of the 1,3-diether donor has been rationalized in the assumption that donor coordination competes with Ti catalytic species formation and xylene-insoluble (highly isotactic) and xylene-soluble (poorly isotacUc) fractions are mainly obtained by polymerization on (100) and (110) cuts, respectively.127...

Although treated as separate classes in the Colour Index, these structural types are closely related and the few diphenylmethane dyes such as auramine (1.28 Cl Basic Yellow 2) are now of little practical interest. Commercial usage of the triarylmethane dyes and pigments has also declined considerably in favour of the major chemical classes. They were formerly noteworthy contributors to the acid, basic, mordant and solvent ranges, primarily in the violet, blue and green sectors. Numerous structural examples are recorded in the Colour Index. The terminal groupings can be amine/quinonimine, as in auramine and crystal violet (1.29 Cl Basic Violet 3), hydroxy/quinone, or both. The aryl nuclei are not always benzenoid (section 6.5). 

The new Colour Index volume Pigments and Solvent Dyes lists some 350 solvent dyes and gives their chemical structures, unlike earlier editions which named 800 dyes but included few structures. This fall in numbers is not because of any decreased use but rather the general contraction in numbers of all dyes used in the textile industry. Solvent dyes have been introduced not by attempts to synthesise new colorants but by selection and in some cases modification of known disperse dyes to meet the technical requirements. The majority of solvent dyes are azo compounds but among the blue dyes there are anthraquinones. The aqueous solubility of some of the parent sulphonated dyes has been reduced to acceptable levels by formation of their salts with heavy metals or long-chain alkylamines. 

In the Colour Index both conventional sulphur dyes and their leuco counterparts are allocated the same Cl constitution number a different number is given to the related solubilised version. Thus, for example, Cl Sulphur Black 1 and Cl Leuco Sulphur Black 1 have the reference Cl 53185 whereas Cl Solubilised Sulphur Black 1 appears under Cl 53186. Because of the complexity of the final products, sulphur dyes are classified according to the chemical structure of the organic starting material that predominates in the manufacturing process. Typical intermediates include aromatic amines, with or without nitro and phenolic groups, and diphenylamine derivatives. 

Colour Index Constitution Numbers 21107 (P.Y.124) and 21107 1 (P.Y.87) are misleading, since both pigments exhibit different chemical structures.
