Comparing Merged Markush Service
(MMS) and Marpat Search Results:
Two Case Studies
Joe Terlizzi
Questel, Inc.

1
Background
• In October 2007, the JFA pharmaceutical group, a
group of professional searchers from the
pharmaceutical industry in Japan, asked me to
compare two chemical structures searched in both
MMS and Marpat. They had received inconclusive
results when they ran the searches.
• The following two case studies conducted at that time
illustrate many of the similarities and differences in the
two systems. They show my search procedure,
results, and conclusions.
2
Background
• The Merged Markush Service (MMS), jointly produced
by Thomson and the French Patent Office (INPI) is a
database containing both Markush structures and
specific compounds from patents. It is based on the
Markush Darc system and the service is exclusively
hosted on Questel.
• Marpat, produced by Chemical Abstracts Service and
available only on STN, contains Markush structures from
patents. It can be searched with the REGISTRY file (for
specific structures) using the CASLINK cluster on STN.
3
Background
• Both MMS and Marpat are usually recommended for a
basic chemical structure search strategy covering
Markush structures in patents.
• Derwent’s Chemical Fragmentation Code system
(only available to Derwent Subscribers) can also yield
unique answers, but since it is not a graphical system
and was not requested by the JFA, it was not used for
this study.

Comparing MMS and Marpat
CASE 1:
The following chemical structure is from an EP patent
document published in 1987. In a JFA study, this document
was retrieved from MMS. It was not retrieved in Marpat.

Comparing MMS and Marpat
CASE 1 results in MMS:
• There were 12 unique patent records
retrieved – 3 from PHARM and 10 from
DWPI, with 1 overlap.
• The most recent record was US7256187
from August 2007.
• The EP record from the JFA study was
only in PHARM, since it was indexed in
the BACKF segment (Backfile)

• G1 could be repeated in Marpat; you cannot repeat a G group in

Some other differences in this query in MMS and Marpat were:
•Atom/Class in Marpat (translation in MMS) was set with CLASS
(equivalent to BT in MMS) on G group substituents. The MMS
structure defaults to equal translation.
Atom/Class Match Level
14
Comparing MMS and Marpat
Case 1 Results using CASLINK (Marpat/Registry/MarpatPrev):
• CASLINK search had 25 results.
• There were unique patent results in both MMS and Marpat for
this structure.
• Most recent US7256187 patent was only in MMS.
• The EP patent missing from JFA study was found in Marpat!
15
Comparing MMS and Marpat
Why didn’t the JFA study retrieve this result in
Marpat?
The JFA query used for Marpat was not as broad as
my query; therefore the EP patent was not
retrieved.
What were the possible differences in my query and
the JFA’s?
• Not sure, but it could have been that my query
allowed for substitution on the rings.
Why the difference in Marpat results and MMS?
• Since the Marpat query was broader than the MMS
query because of the open substitution, there
were a greater number of results in Marpat.
16
Comparing MMS and Marpat
CASE 1 Conclusions:
• Default levels in both systems must always be
taken into account. Atom/Class in Marpat
corresponds to Translation Level in MMS. Defaults
are very different in both systems, with Marpat
having more broader search defaults.
• Non- Hydrogen attachment defaults (Marpat) and
free sites (MMS) must also be taken into account.
• Unique results are often achieved in both
systems.

CASE 2:
The following structure is from an US patent document published in
1990. Is there unique retrieval in MMS or Marpat in a freedom-tooperate search? (Do not take into account specific structures in

Case 2 Using Marpat
• The query was drawn similarly in Marpat, but there was one
•
problem. G groups in Marpat cannot be attached to more than
2 nodes and the system would not prepare the query. MMS
allows attachments to more than two nodes.
Since X has three attachments in the original query, a different
solution had to be sought.

Comparing MMS and Marpat
Conclusions:
• Is there unique retrieval for this case in Marpat or
MMS? No
• Complex queries may not always run in MMS or Marpat
but can usually be adjusted to run.
• Features such as bond attributes, unspecified bonds,
unspecified atoms, can often help in allowing a
structure to process.
• Speed and number of iterations will be different in each
system.
30
Comparing MMS and Marpat
Summary:
• Know the defaults in both MMS and Marpat, especially
translation and free sites (MMS) and class level and
non-hydrogen attachment (Marpat) defaults
• Familiarize yourself with bond normalization rules in
both systems – they are different!
• Learn the unique features of both systems (ring
isolation, subset searching, JOIN command, etc.)
• Use both systems for a comprehensive search!
