Abstract

In this chapter, we describe the chemistry-based, hierarchical classification procedure in which a series of nonlinear, cyclic, and branched polymer architectures are classified from the molecular graph presentation of alkanes and cycloalkanes. We also discuss a systematic notation protocol for nonlinear polymer topologies, modified from the previous version ([3]), that is based on classification via the terminus T and junction J values in graph constructions of topological polymers.
