  • Publication number: 20070016612
    Abstract: Data that represents chemical structures, and fragments thereof, are transformed into corresponding molecular keywords comprising letters and numbers that are associated with the original data representation. These molecular keywords encode the structural features of a given chemical structure. Molecular keywords are generated for linear structures, branching points, adjacent branching points, monocyclic, polycyclic and macrocyclic ring systems, stereo centers, ring-substituent patterns and molecular-formula atom counts. Indexing, database searching, and Web page presentation can be provided in conjunction with the molecular keywords representation.

  • Publication number: 20050047976
    Abstract: The present invention generally provides a novel, automation-compatible solid or solution phase reaction vessel, as well as methods for using such a vessel. Generally, the reaction vessel comprises a microplate assembly with a modular solid phase included within the individual reaction wells. The reaction vessel of the invention allows for the integration of solid phase chemistry with the processing abilities of solution phase chemistry. According to the invention, the microplate assembly and the solid phases are configured so as to integrate together into a single reaction vessel. The combination enables solid phase reactions in a single vessel with full compatibility to liquid handling automation. Further, the combination enables novel methods for performing combination solution phase/solid phase reactions under inert conditions.
