The above name is the chemical class for Novichok agents.

The example above has three Oxygen atoms bonded onto the Phosphorous atom and one Fluorine
atom.

This means the molecule is a fuorophosphonate.

The examples below of A-230 and A-234 DO NOT have the same bonding, but are described in the
literature as

ChEBI
Chemical Entities of Biological Interest (ChEBI) is a database and ontology of
molecular entities focused on 'small' chemical compounds, that is part of the Open
Biomedical Ontologies effort. The term "molecular entity" refers to any
constitutionally or isotopically distinct atom, molecule, ion, ion pair, radical, radical
ion, complex, conformer, etc., identifiable as a separately distinguishable entity.
