Basic Principles of the CIP‐System and Proposals for a Revision
Abstract
“From Configurational Notation of Stereoisomers to the Conceptual Basis of Stereochemistry” is the title of a lecture [V. Prelog, ACS Symp. Ser. No. 12 (1975) 179] in which the chronologically and alphabetically third member of the CIP‐triumvirate discusses the history of the CIP‐system. The experience accumulated in the meantime, particularly the efforts to teach computers to use the system as described in 1966 by Cahn, Ingold and Prelog, has shown that certain of its aspects must be more strictly formulated and others modified. Questions dealing with stereoisomers (and stereotopicity), which previously have been treated predominantly in a pragmatic manner, are now discussed in a systematic way.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
