Riassunto

Dictionary of Chemical Names and Synonyms is an important book containing essential information about more than 20,000 chemicals. The book covers chemicals on the U.S. Government's List of Lists and chemicals regulated by the Environmental Protection Agency, Food and Drug Administration, Department of Agriculture, Department of Transportation, International Trade Commission, and Occupational Safety and Health Administration. Other chemicals listed include those found in the Hazardous Substances Data Bank, the Toxic Substances Control Act Test Submissions (TSCATS) database, and the Environmental Fate Databases. Significant commercial chemicals are covered, as well.
Dictionary of Chemical Names and Synonyms provides critical information on the identity of chemicals and allows cross-referencing between the diverse nomenclatures used by the various scientific disciplines that deal with chemicals. In addition, over half the discrete chemicals in this book have SMILES structural notations to further assist in identifying the compound. The book is indexed in the following manner:

CAS Registry Numbers
Chemical names and synonyms
Chemical formulas

This book is critical for chemical manufacturers; industrial health and safety officers; persons responsible for disposal of chemicals; persons responsible and interested in Community Right to Know and Workers Right to Know programs; individuals responsible for ordering and receiving chemicals; persons maintaining public and academic libraries; and all persons working around chemicals or concerned with chemicals in the environment, including environmental engineers, toxicologists, industrial hygienists, and chemists.

List Information

Several lists have been used in this compilation to insure that all significant chemicals would be included:

U.S. EPA Toxic Substances Control Act Test Submissions

U.S. EPA Environmental Fate Data Base

National Library of Medicine's ChemID SUPERLIST

NLM Hazardous Substances Data Bank

Informazioni sull?autore

Philip H. Howard joined Syracuse Research Corporation in 1970 and has served as project director for numerous environmental fate and effects projects for federal agencies and industry. Dr. Howard's current research projects include development of structure / biodegradability correlations, development of estimation techniques for environmental fate physical properties and rate constants, and databases of information to support these efforts. He received a B.S. degree in chemistry from Norwich University in 1965 and a Ph.D. in organic chemistry from Syracuse University in 1970.Michael Neal joined Syracuse Research Corporation in the late 1970s and has directed projects in toxicology and human risk assessment for the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry. Dr. Neal is currently involved in projects to identify areas of toxicologic data for chemicals in commerce where there is insufficient health and safety information, and provide recommendations for needed additional testing. He also manages the Toxic Substance Control Act Test Submissions (TSCA TS) data base which disseminates to the public unpublished information received under the Toxic Substances Control Act. Dr. Neal received a B.A. degree in biology from Hartwick College in 1969 and a Ph.D. in biochemistry from Syracuse University in 1975.
