The document describes standards and processes for generating parent structures from chemical registry data. It outlines validation checks performed on chemical structures and issues assigned severity levels. Standardization procedures are described, including disconnecting certain atoms from metals, ionizing acids, dearomatizing structures, and removing chiral flags and stereocenters in some cases. Parent structures are generated by applying different modifications like making structures insensitive to isotopes, stereo, or tautomers. Primary compound keys may be standard InChI or absolute SMILES strings, but a non-standard InChI approach is proposed to better distinguish stereo and tautomers. Feedback is requested to improve the chemical structure standardization and parenting procedures.
