Physically, why does a temi like the Darling-Dennison couplmg arise We have said that the spectroscopic Hamiltonian is an abstract representation of the more concrete, physical Hamiltonian fomied by letting the nuclei in the molecule move with specified initial conditions of displacement and momentum on the PES, with a given total kinetic plus potential energy. This is the sense in which the spectroscopic Hamiltonian is an effective Hamiltonian, in the nomenclature used above. The concrete Hamiltonian that it mimics is expressed in temis of particle momenta and displacements, in the representation given by the nomial coordinates. Then, in general, it may contain temis proportional to all the powers of the products of the... 

A nomenclature or notation is called unambiguous if it produces only one structure. However, the structure could be expressed in this nomenclature or notation by more than one representation, all producing the same structure. Moreover, uniqueness" demands that the transformation results in only one - unique -structure or nomenclature, respectively, in both directions. 

Two-Dimensional Representation of Chemical Structures. The lUPAC standardization of organic nomenclature allows automatic translation of a chemical s name into its chemical stmcture, or, conversely, the naming of a compound based on its stmcture. The chemical formula for a compound can be translated into its stmcture once a set of semantic rules for representation are estabUshed (26). The semantic rules and their appHcation have been described (27,28). The inverse problem, generating correct names from chemical stmctures, has been addressed (28) and explored for the specific case of naming condensed benzenoid hydrocarbons (29,30). 

Representation of and the nomenclature for stereo-isomers are given in Appendix 1. 

The increased speed of structure determination necessary for the structural genomics projects makes an independent validation of the structures (by comparison to expected properties) particularly important. Structure validation helps to correct obvious errors (e.g. in the covalent structure) and leads to a more standardised representation of structural data, e.g. by agreeing on a common atom name nomenclature. The knowledge of the structure quality is a prerequisite for further use of the structure, e.g. in molecular modelling or drug design. 

We will not discuss the system for linear representation (IUPAC 1989 b), as it is not necessary to use it in this book. It is based on the same system as that for oral and written nomenclature, but has additional symbols for use in computers. 

The Haworth representation implies a planar ring. However, monosaccharides assume conformations that are not planar these may be represented by Haworth conformational formulae. The nomenclature of conformations is described in 2-Carb-7. For example, (5-D-glucopyranose assumes a chair conformation ...

Four main approaches have been suggested for the representation of chemical structures in machine-readable form fragment codes, systematic nomenclature, linear notations, and connection tables. 

If you ever have to interconvert between these two nomenclatures, it may be easier for you to write down a representation of the structure rather than to try to figure out the relationships between the length, number of double bonds, and how you add and subtract what to get whatever. 

A rigorous and complete mathematical treatment of the polarization of light and the interaction of light with oriented matter is outside the scope of this chapter. These subjects have been thoroughly dealt with before and can be found in a number of comprehensive texts [29-32] the reader is referred to the excellent book by Michl and Thulstrup [3] for a more detailed treatment of optical spectroscopy with polarized light. Here, a conventional, qualitative representation is given to establish the nomenclature and conventions to be used and to facilitate the understanding of the concepts presented.

As outlined in the previous section, there is a hierarchy of possible representations of metabolism and no unique definition what constitutes a true model of metabolism exists. Nonetheless, mathematical modeling of metabolism is usually closely associated with changes in compound concentrations that are described in terms of rates of biochemical reactions. In this section, we outline the nomenclature and the essential steps in constructing explicit kinetic models of metabolic networks. 

Quoted from Lavoisier, Oeuvres de Lavoisier, (Paris, 1862), II 525 in Maurice Crosland, "The Development of Chemistry in the Eighteenth Century," Studies on Voltaire and the Eighteenth Century 24 (1963) 369441, on 407. Included in the 1787 Nomenclature are six folding plates demonstrating a symbolic scheme for chemical representation devised by Hassenfratz and Adet. 

The cyclic forms adopted by the hexoses and pentoses can be depicted as symmetrical ring structures called Haworth projection formulae, which give a better representation of the spatial arrangement of the functional groups with respect to one another. The nomenclature is based on the simplest organic compounds exhibiting a similar five- or six-membered ring... 

There are many advantages in selecting only the significant ne eigenvectors and singular values for the representation of Y. In fact, from now on we only use this selection and introduce an appropriate nomenclature. 

Another characteristic point is the special attention that in intermetallic science, as in several fields of chemistry, needs to be dedicated to the structural aspects and to the description of the phases. The structure of intermetallic alloys in their different states, liquid, amorphous (glassy), quasi-crystalline and fully, three-dimensionally (3D) periodic crystalline are closely related to the different properties shown by these substances. Two chapters are therefore dedicated to selected aspects of intermetallic structural chemistry. Particular attention is dedicated to the solid state, in which a very large variety of properties and structures can be found. Solid intermetallic phases, generally non-molecular by nature, are characterized by their 3D crystal (or quasicrystal) structure. A great many crystal structures (often complex or very complex) have been elucidated, and intermetallic crystallochemistry is a fundamental topic of reference. A great number of papers have been published containing results obtained by powder and single crystal X-ray diffractometry and by neutron and electron diffraction methods. A characteristic nomenclature and several symbols and representations have been developed for the description, classification and identification of these phases. 

The currently used stereochemical nomenclature systems for configurations with four or more ligands are chirality oriented, refering to rigid configurations, or their monocentric subunits. The preceding discussion demonstrates, however, that in many cases it is preferable to use a polycentric representation.
