An Application of Interactive Graphics - The Nested Retrieval of Chemical Structures

Feldman, Richard J.; Heller, Stephen R.

Journal of Chemical Documentation, 12, 1, 48-54, Feb 72

A technique for structuring and searching a large file of chemical structures is presented. The technique involves generating a nested, structured tree based on the Wiswesser analysis of chemical structures. An important virtue of the tree is the rapid and inexpensive file updating.
