The universal adoption of an agreed nomenclaturehas never been moreimportant for the description of chemical structures in publishing and on-line searching. The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry(IUPAC)1a,band Chemical Abstracts Service(CAS)2make similar recom-mendations. The main points are shown here with hyperlinks to originaldocuments. Further details can be found in the IUPAC Purple Book.
