Abstract

There are situations in chemical nomenclature where duplication
of locants creates difficulties (a) in describing modifications to chemical structures, (b) in describing stereochemistry, (c) in identifying isotopically-labeled atoms, and (d) in uniquely identifying atoms for crystallography, Nodal nomenclature is shown to avoid these problems and to simplify such descriptions.
