title: Binary coding of Kekulé structures of catacondensed benzenoid hydrocarbons.
abstract: An algorithm is described by means of which the Kekulé structures of a catacondensed benzenoid molecule (with h hexagons) are transformed into binary codes (of length h). By this, computer-aided manipulations with, and memory-storage of Kekulé structures are much facilitated. Any Kekulé structure can easily be recovered from its binary code.
