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. 1, record 1, English, - 2%2D%5B%282%2Dchlorophenyl%29methylidene%5Dpropanedinitrile

Gaz lacrymogène possédant un effet lacrymogène puissant et irritant les voies respiratoires. [Définition uniformisée par le Groupe de travail de terminologie des munitions.] 8, record 1, French, - 2%2D%5B%282%2Dchloroph%C3%A9nyl%29m%C3%A9thylid%C3%A8ne%5Dpropanedinitrile

Le gaz CS [...] est un gaz lacrymogène [qui] est très employé pour disperser les émeutes et autres troubles de l'ordre public. [Il] se décline en plusieurs versions, le CS1 est une poudre enrobée de silicone qui peut perdurer sur la terrain durant plusieurs semaines. Le CS2 est résistant à l'eau. [...] Dans les cartouches et grenades utilisées par les forces de l'ordre, il est stocké sous forme cristalline similaire à du talc. On y ajoute également des substances destinées à répandre le gaz aux alentours grâce à la formation d'un nuage de particules, celles-ci peuvent accentuer l'effet nocif du gaz et parfois provoquer des brûlures. [...] le CS est dangereux en milieu clos. Si plusieurs grenades de CS sont lancées dans une pièce, la quantité de gaz est telle qu'elle pourrait entraîner la mort par asphyxie (présence de monoxyde de carbone, disparition de l'oxygène et incapacité massive des voies respiratoires). [...] Le CS présente des risques pour plusieurs organes. Les voies respiratoires et le système digestif sont les premiers touchés en l'espace de 20 à 60 secondes. 9, record 1, French, - 2%2D%5B%282%2Dchloroph%C3%A9nyl%29m%C3%A9thylid%C3%A8ne%5Dpropanedinitrile
