A representative sample from the list of ChEBI classes used in the analysis

ChEBI ID Name Definition
CHEBI:50860 organic molecular entity A molecular entity that contains carbon.

CHEBI:50047 organic amino compound A compound formally derived from ammonia by replacing one, two or three hydrogen atoms by organyl groups.

CHEBI:51690 enaminone A compound containing a conjugated system of an amine, an alkene and a ketone.

CHEBI:33567 catecholamine 4-(2-Aminoethyl)pyrocatechol [4-(2-aminoethyl)benzene-1,2-diol] and derivatives formed by substitution.

CHEBI:33860 aromatic amine An amine in which the amino group is linked directly to an aromatic system.

CHEBI:51349 polyamine macromolecule A macromolecule composed of units connected by imino (−NR-) linkages.

CHEBI:51402 phenylenediamine A benzene substituted with two amino groups.

CHEBI:59654 prolinols The class of all compounds which contain a prolinol skeleton.

CHEBI:33709 amino acid A carboxylic acid containing one or more amino groups.

CHEBI:60249 lead ion A lead atom having a net electric charge.

CHEBI:58941 cyclic tetrapyrrole anion An organic anion arising from deprotonation of a cyclic tetrapyrrole compound.

CHEBI:2580 unsaturated fatty acid anion Any fatty acid anion containing at least one C-C unsaturated bond; formed by deprotonation of the carboxylic acid moiety.

CHEBI:58955 branched-chain fatty acid anion Any fatty acid anion with a carbon side-chain or isopropyl termination.

CHEBI:33598 carbocyclic compound A cyclic compound in which all of the ring members are carbon atoms.

CHEBI:33658 arene Any monocyclic or polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon.

CHEBI:33847 monocyclic arene A monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbon.

CHEBI:38976 alkylbenzene Benzene substituted with one or more alkyl groups.

CHEBI:35302 helicene ortho-Fused polycyclic arenes in which all rings (minimum five) are angularly arranged so as to give helically shaped molecules.

CHEBI:51198 calixarene A macrocycle composed of 1,3-phenylene groups linked by methylene groups. The number of 1,3-phenylene units in the macrocycle is denoted by the n in calix[n]arene name.

CHEBI:33612 polyhedrane A polycyclic hydrocarbon of the (CH)n formula having a skeleton corresponding to the regular or semiregular geometrical solid.

CHEBI:36786 tetralins Compounds containing a tetralin skeleton.

CHEBI:50961 rotaxane A system in which at least one macrocycle encloses another, rod-like molecule (shaft) having end groups too large to pass through the ring opening, and thus holds the rod-like molecule in position without covalent bonding.

CHEBI:51269 acenes Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons consisting of fused benzene rings in a rectilinear arrangement and their substitution derivatives.

CHEBI:51586 benzoins Compounds containing a benzoin (2-hydroxy-1,2-diphenylethanone) skeleton.
