Nenad Trinajstić
Nenad Trinajstić (26 October 1936 – 27 August 2021) was a Croatian chemist and one of pioneers of the chemical graph theory. Life and work Trinajstić was born in Zagreb. He received M.Sc. and D.Sc. degrees from the University of Zagreb based on work done at the University of Sheffield under John Murrell. His doctoral advisor was Milan Randić. From 1968 to 1970 he was a Postdoctoral fellow under Michael J. S. Dewar at the University of Texas, Austin with whom he has published 16 papers. He worked at Pliva and Ruđer Bošković Institute eventually becoming a full research professor in 1977 and from 2001 professor emeritus at the University of Zagreb. His scientific interests are quantum chemistry, mathematical chemistry, chemoinformatics, history of chemistry and philosophy of natural science. He wrote the first monograph on chemical graph theory and introduced several molecular descriptors such as 3-dimensional Wiener index and Zagreb indices (with Ivan Gutman), which are am ...

Chemical Graph Theory
Chemical graph theory is the topology branch of mathematical chemistry which applies graph theory to mathematical modelling of chemical phenomena. The pioneers of chemical graph theory are Alexandru Balaban, Ante Graovac, Iván Gutman, Haruo Hosoya, Milan Randić and Nenad Trinajstić (also Harry Wiener and others). In 1988, it was reported that several hundred researchers worked in this area, producing about 500 articles annually. A number of monographs have been written in the area, including the two-volume comprehensive text by Trinajstić, ''Chemical Graph Theory'', that summarized the field up to mid-1980s. The adherents of the theory maintain that the properties of a chemical graph (i.e., a graph-theoretical representation of a molecule A molecule is a group of two or more atoms that are held together by Force, attractive forces known as chemical bonds; depending on context, the term may or may not include ions that satisfy this criterion.

Molecular Descriptor
Molecular descriptors play a fundamental role in chemistry, pharmaceutical sciences, environmental protection policy, and health researches, as well as in quality control, being the way molecules, thought of as real bodies, are transformed into numbers, allowing some mathematical treatment of the chemical information contained in the molecule. This was defined by Todeschini and Consonni as: "''The molecular descriptor is the final result of a logic and mathematical procedure which transforms chemical information encoded within a symbolic representation of a molecule into a useful number or the result of some standardized experiment.''" By this definition, the molecular descriptors are divided into two main categories: experimental measurements, such as log P, molar refractivity, dipole moment, polarizability, and, in general, additive physico-chemical properties, and theoretical molecular descriptors, which are derived from a symbolic representation of the molecule and can be fur ...

Večernji List
(also known as '; ) is a Croatian and Bosnian-Herzegovinian daily newspaper published in Zagreb and Mostar. History and profile was started in Zagreb in 1959. Its predecessor ' ('Evening Courier') appeared for the first time on 3 June 1957 in Zagreb on 24 pages but quickly merged with ' ('National Paper') to form what is today known as . is considered a conservative leaning newspaper.

Croatian Academy Of Arts And Sciences
The Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts (; , HAZU) is the national academy of Croatia. HAZU was founded under the patronage of the Croatian bishop Josip Juraj Strossmayer under the name Yugoslav Academy of Sciences and Arts (, JAZU) since its founder wanted to make it the central scientific and artistic institution of all South Slavs. Today, its main goals are encouraging and organizing scientific work, applying the achieved results, developing of artistic and cultural activities, carrying about the Croatian cultural heritage and its affirmation in the world, publishing the results of scientific research and artistic creativity and giving suggestions and opinions for the advancement of science and art in areas of particular importance to Croatia. The academy is divided into nine classes; social sciences, mathematical, physical and chemical sciences, natural sciences, medical sciences, philological sciences, Literature, Fine Arts, Musical Arts and Musicology, technical sciences ...
