COMMISSION ON NOMENCLATURE OF ORGANIC CHEMISTRY (III.1)
Number: 310/27/98
Title: Seniority of Detachable Prefixes Based on CIP
Priorities
Coordinator(s): J.
L. Wisniewski
Completion Date: 2001 - project terminated
Objective:
Use of the priority system devised by Cahn, Ingold and Prelog
(CIP priorities) to replace the alphabetical order in the citation
of detachable prefixes in IUPAC names.
Progress:
Dr. Wisniewski implemented Ranking Rules "a", "b", "c" and "h" of
the Stereochemistry Document (dated August 1998) and run it over
a sample of more then 12,000 structures from the Beilstein Database.
The success rate was 93,8%. The other ranking rules still need to
be implemented and the feasiblity of thr whole ordering practice
based on CIP checked for more complex cases.
