ACD/Labs' systematic naming application, ACD/Name, converts systematic and trivial names to chemical structures.
It has the ability to create IUPAC systematic names and CAS index names and is the accepted quality standard in systematic nomenclature generation.
ACD/PhysChem property calculator tools come with the largest available PhysChem property content database, and the analytical chemistry components offer the ability to manage 1D and 2D NMR, MS, UV-Vis, IR, Chromatography and other analytical curves.
Antony Williams, V.P.
of Scientific Development and Marketing at ACD/Labs commented: "ACD/Labs offers the definitive collection of applications for systematic naming, NMR and PhysChem prediction, ChemAnalytics and mobile chemistry.
Our collaboration with IDBS offers our joint customers the benefits which arise from delivering ACD/ChemSketch as a homogenizing environment integrating ActivityBase and ACD/Labs tools.".
