Record 1, Textual support, English
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 DEF
A chemical compound which appears under the form of a yellow liquid, is insoluble in water, is miscible with alcohol and benzene, is derived from toluene by nitration and separation by fractional distillation and is used in the production of toluidine, tolidine, fuchsin and various synthetic dyes. 7, record 1, English, - 1%2Dmethyl%2D2%2Dnitrobenzene
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
1-methyl-2-nitrobenzene: form recommended by the IUPAC (International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry) for the systematic name corresponding to the CAS number indicated on the present record. 5, record 1, English, - 1%2Dmethyl%2D2%2Dnitrobenzene
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 2 OBS
The prefixes "ortho-," "meta-" and "para-," along with their corresponding abbreviations ("o-," "m-" and "p-"), appear in italics and are ignored in alphabetizing. According to the actual chemical nomenclature rules in organic chemistry (in 2003), the numbers designating the positions of the disubstitution groups (1,2- for "ortho-," 1,3- for "meta-" and 1,4- for "para-") are to be preferred to the symbols "o-," "m-" and "p-." Furthermore, the prefixes "ortho-," "meta-" and "para-" should not be used anymore, and their corresponding abbreviations ("o-," "m-," and "p-") will soon be judged to be avoided, if not totally condemned. 5, record 1, English, - 1%2Dmethyl%2D2%2Dnitrobenzene
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 3 OBS
ONT: This might be an in-house or a non-recognized abbreviation; not to be used alone, to avoid any risk of confusion. 5, record 1, English, - 1%2Dmethyl%2D2%2Dnitrobenzene

Les préfixes de position «ortho-», «méta-» et «para-», tout comme les abréviations correspondantes «o-», «m-» et «p-», s'écrivent en italique et n'interviennent pas dans une classification par ordre alphabétique. Selon les règles de nomenclature de chimie organique en vigueur aujourd'hui (en 2003), il est recommandé d'utiliser les chiffres 1,2-, 1,3- et 1,4-, respectivement. Les préfixes «ortho-», «méta-» et «para-» ne doivent plus être utilisés. L'usage des symboles correspondants («o-», «m-» et «p-») sera bientôt fortement déconseillé, sans être exclu. 2, record 1, French, - 1%2Dm%C3%A9thyl%2D2%2Dnitrobenz%C3%A8ne
