These are separate catalogue entries; shared structure does not establish interchangeable pharmacopoeial designations.

Identity sources and calculation method

Identifiers originate from the source catalogues and available public identity records. InChI and InChIKey on this page are generated from the displayed SMILES. RDKit validation checks the molecular representation; it does not independently verify every catalogue assignment.
