Building the EnCOrE dictionary collaboratively: strategy and practice

Synthesis of Alkali Metal Carboxylates and Carboxylic Acids Using “Wet” and “Anhydrous” Alkali Metal Hydroxides

“…This Review is intended to (i) include in the proper context the original work ,, we have carried out with “APH” to synthesize vinyl cyclopropane carboxylic acids gem-dimethyl substituted on the vinyl group from 2,2-dimethylcyclohexanones bearing two leaving groups at the 3,4-position and from α,α-dimethyl cyclopentanones bearing a leaving group in the β-position and fused to a cyclopropane ring at α′,β′, and (ii) advertise and promote this unusual reagent discovered 61 years ago by Swan who disclosed in a single and unique paper its exceptional reactivity and Gassman who rediscovered it and promote it. ,,, It was also intended, in the context of EnCOrE project, to model the domain and to organize the data to extract the knowledge …”

Adventures in Chemistry and in Information Technology: Using Chemistry Skill to Finance Partnership with Computers

“…For such purpose we selected a topic (ester hydrolysis) and extracted a series of terms specific to the domain, from published papers in the field, selected a definition from those collected from the web for each term that she organized then. We then successfully applied her strategy to the domain of ozone, its properties and reactivity . The next step was to bring it to the web, to include security around it to create a “product”.…”

ViewpointS: capturing formal data and informal contributions into an adaptive knowledge graph

“…The phenomenon is even more accurate in multidisciplinary contexts. For example, when tight collaboration and mutual understanding is required between senior chemists and computer scientists building an electronic encyclopaedia (Krief et al 2008;Lemoisson & Cerri 2005). Cross connecting ontologies in order to obtain machine-readable data (the so called semantic Web) is a sticking point, due to the fact that each ontology's evolution is domain-dependent (Karapiperis & Apostolou 2006).…”
