Summary
Does this, from the expert Helmer cites, fit with what we have covered on novichoks previously?--Diagonal (talk) 10:35, 17 July 2020 (UTC)

A leading British chemist specializing in the organophosphate agents says: “in a normal toxicology case, the reporting scientist would have NMR [nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy] and GC/MS [gas chromatography, mass spectrometry] data which would lead to a very specific naming of the chemical.” He adds that the naming would have explicitly referred to the OPCW’s schedule of chemical agent formulas and chemical names: ''The above name is the chemical class for Novichok agents” -- British organophosphate chemist. He also refers to the OPCW identification schedules proposed in January 2019 with two alternative formulas: P-Alkyl (H or ≤ C10, incl. cycloalkyl) N-(1-(dialkyl(≤ C10, incl. cycloalkyl)amino))alkylidene(H or ≤ C10, incl. cycloalkyl) phosphoramidic fluorides and corresponding alkylated or protonated salts e.g., N-(1-(di-n-decylamino)-n-decylidene)-P-decylphosphonamidic fluoride No known CAS Number. O-alkyl (H or ≤ C10, incl. cycloalkyl) N-(1-(dialkyl(≤ C10, incl. cycloalkyl)amino))alkylidene(H or ≤ C10, incl. cycloalkyl) phosphoramidofluoridates and corresponding alkylated or protonated salts e.g., O-n-decyl N-(1-(di-n-decylamino)-n-decylidene) phosphoramidofluoridate.''
