4. Process E/Z Sterodescriptors for Cyclic Systems
5. Convert Names of Various Anhydrides into Structures
6. Expanded Rules Around Ambiguity
7. Expanded possibilities to treat trivial and semisystematic names

1. Multiplicative Nomenclature

Generate structures for systematic names created in accordance with multiplicative nomenclature according to IUPAC and CAS Index rules. In previous versions, such names were refused.

1,3-isobenzofurandione, 5,5'-[(2,3,5-trimethyl-1,4-phenylene)bis(oxy)]bis-
or
5,5'-((2,3,5-trimethyl-1,4-phenylene)bis(oxy))bis(2-benzofuran-1,3-dione)

benzoic acid, 3,3'-(oxydiethylidene)bis-, dimethyl ester
or
dimethyl 3,3'-(oxydiethane-1,1-diyl)dibenzoate

2. Produce Structures for Names Containing Positive and Negative Charges

octahydro-1,3-dimethyl-2H- 1,3,2-benzodiazaphosphol-2-ylium	(phenylsulfinyl)methanide

3. Convert Names of Various Radicals into Structures

Bicyclo[3.2.1]oct-2-en-8-ylium-6-yl	Benzylsilylene

4,4'-Oxybis(α,α-diphenylbenzyl)

4. Process E/Z Sterodescriptors for Cyclic Systems

ACD/Name to Structure can treat names with indicated E/Z descriptors for cyclic double bonds for 8-membered and larger rings.

(1S,3E,6Z)-7- methylcyclonona-3,6-diene-1-carboxylic acid	(2Z)-2-(3,6-dihydro-2H-pyran-2-ylidene)- 1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyridine

5. Convert Names of Various Anhydrides into Structures

2-Chloroethanesulfinic anhydride	(Thiobenzoic) anhydride

6. Expanded Rules Around Ambiguity

Generate possible structures for ambiguous names that contain a warning about ambiguity.

pentene-2-one	1-methyl-1,2-dihydro-1,6-naphthyridinium
Warning: Ambiguity is possible	Warning: Ambiguity is possible

7. Expanded possibilities to treat trivial and semisystematic names

The new version of ACD/Name to Structure treats more trivial and semisystematic names due to the updated ACD/Dictionary that now contains 5,000 additional trivial names and registry numbers. Also, the internal database of structures has expanded by 25% in regards to trivial names.

nitramisole hydrochloride	10,20-dimethylphlorin-2-propionic acid
Warning: Derivative of ACD/Dictionary structure
