Differential molecular connectivity in data-base fragment searching.
A general scheme is described in which molecular fragments are coded from molecular connectivity values. Specifically a fragment is described by the difference between a simple connectivity index of a certain order and the valence connectivity index of the same order. This numerical value is then used to search for that particular fragment among stored fragment values associated with a molecular connectivity calculation. Examples illustrate the method.
