References Chemical Abstracts Service Source

Information was gleaned from each original publication except where an additional reference to Chemical Abstracts is included. Each citation of a Russian journal or Angewandte Chemie refers to the original Russian or German version, not to any subsequent English translation. Abbreviations for journal titles are those recommended in the Chemical Abstracts Service Source Index (1994) and quarterly supplements. 

Further steps toward universality are taken by the replacement of element and compound names wherever possible by symbols and formulas, and by adding to data in older units their recalculated SI equivalents. The usefulness of the reference sections has been increased by giving journal-title abbreviations according to the Chemical Abstracts Service Source Index, by listing in each reference all of its authors and by accompanying references to patents and journals that may be difficult to access by their Chemical... 

A list of journal codes in alphabetical order, together with the journals to which they refer, is given immediately following these notes. Journal names are abbreviated throughout using the CASSI (Chemical Abstracts Service Source Index) system.

For reasons of economy of space, some volumes usually treated in this serial publication as books are styled as periodicals [as recommended by CASSI (Chemical Abstracts Service Source Index of the American Chemical Society)]. For example, Chem. Heterocycl. Compd. refers to the Weissberger-Taylor series The Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds published by Wiley (Interscience) Alkaloids (London) is the Specialist Periodical Report, covering that subject, of the Chemical Society (London). 

The various abstract indexes discussed above contain item numbers that refer directly to an abstract in one of the abstract volumes. If the abstract indicates that the research results are of interest, the original journal article should be consulted whenever possible, even if the abstract gives the desired information. If a cited journal article is especially pertinent but not available locally, a reproduction can be obtained through interlibrary loan services. The availability of all journals abstracted in Chemical Abstracts is listed in Chemical Abstracts Service Source Index, published by the American Chemical Society. 

The Chemical Abstracts Service Source Index, commonly referred to as CASSI, gives details of the journals and related literature cited in Chemical Abstracts since 1907. In addition, CASSI contains entries for those publications covered by Chemische Zentralblatt and its predecessors from 1830-1969 and the publications cited by Beilstein prior to 1907. The most recent printed cumulative edition of CASSI spanned the period 1907-2004. Printed supplements to CASSI were published quarterly from 2005 to 2009. The fourth quarterly supplement each year cumulated and replaced the preceding three supplements, and was effectively an annual update. Publication of the printed edition of CASSI ceased in 2009, but CASSI remains available and updated in a searchable CD-ROM format (CASSI on CD, first produced in the 1990s). 

Having obtained a reference from various sources or searches, one often needs to consult the original journal (the location of patents is discussed on p. ). The first step is to ascertain the full name of the journal, since it is the abbreviation that is generally given. Of course, everyone should be familiar with the abbreviations of the very important journals, such as J. Org. Chem., Angew. Chem. Int. Ed., and so on, but references are often found to journals whose titles are not at all familiar (e.g., K. Skogs Lantbruksakad. Tidskr. or Nauchn. Tr. Mosk. Lesotekh. Inst.). In such cases, one consults the Chemical Abstracts Service Source Index (CASSI), with the most recent abbreviations in bold print. CASSI is available in a 1907-2004 cumulative, containing information 80,000 serial and nonserial publications. CASSI also lists journals covered by Chemisches Zentralblatt and its predecessors... 

The journal name is an essential component of a periodical reference citation. Abbreviate the name according to the Chemical Abstracts Service Source Index (CASSI) and italicize it. One-word journal names are not abbreviated (e.g., Biochemistry, Macromolecules, Nature, Science). No punctuation is added to end this field thus, a period will be there with an abbreviation but not with a spelled-out word.

Journal abbreviations generally follow the practice of Chemical Abstracts Service Source Index (CASSI). In patent references, no distinction is made between patent applications and granted patents. 

MARPAT, produced by Chemical Abstracts Service, coataias the geaeric stmcture records for pateat pubHcatioas siace 1988, which are iacluded ia the CA file. Sources iaclude pateats from 26 couatries plus EPO and PCT pubHcations. BibHographic records for retrieved references can be direcdy accessed ia this database (101). 

Compounds are identified by an IUPAC approved name [93-ano-l], the empirical molecular formula, and the Chemical Abstracts Service Registry Number. A summary table is available for each compound which includes the reported temperature and density values, an assigned uncertainty for the density, the difference between the observed and smoothed density values and an index key to the source of the data. A complete list of references, identified by the index keys, appears at the end of the volume. 

Nine years after his first publication6 Stork quoted in his own review article8 90 publications devoted to enamines. Our computer search21 in the chemical abstract service (CAS) resulted in 4389 hits for enamines from 1967 to 1992 (up to Volume 117 of Chemical Abstracts) which indicate the importance, use and applications of enamines. A CAS search for reviews on enamines for the same period yielded 92 hits. However, many of these referred to difficultly accessible sources and have therefore been neglected. Only the 22 most important reviews on preparations, properties and synthetic uses of enamines are listed here22-42, and their titles and lengths are given in the list of references.
