Establishment of standards for nomenclature of rotaxanes and catenanes.
There are currently no standards for nomenclature of rotaxanes and catenanes. During the last 15 years, the scientific community has shown increasing interest in these two fields of small molecules. Standardisation of nomenclature in this field is highly desirable and long overdue.

A manuscript is being prepared for publication in Pure Appl. Chem. and is submitted to public review comments until 30 April 2006.
