The Division is responsible for maintaining
and developing standard systems for designating chemical structures,
including both conventional nomenclature and computer-based
systems. This responsibility is to be fulfilled by:
-
Identifying the needs of the user community.
- Generating projects arising from those needs.
-
Identifying project leaders and task groups
to carry out the work.
-
Administering approved projects financially,
monitoring their progress, and approving resulting recommendations
for review by established IUPAC procedures.
-
Identifying new sources of expertise and
enabling their involvement in projects.
-
As far as possible, ensuring that nomenclature
systems projects and the resulting recommendations are compatible
with each other, with established IUPAC recommendations, and
with computer-based systems for manipulating chemical names
and structures.
