moiety, group
if I understand your Q, i.e. that you're asking about "-rest" (but then you'd have put that in the question box)? Naja.

: alkylene group is better, a moiety usually refers to a couple of different groups strung together

German term (edited):
Gegenstand der Erfindung sind neue tricyclische Ether der allgemeinen Formel,
subject of the invention are new tricyclic ether (compounds) of the general formula
rather straight-forward, I think

I'm thinking we're both working on the same big batch of work at the moment....!
If so, this BiG company has previously translated a very similar sentence as such:
Gegenstand der Erfindung sind... neue tricyclische Ether... der allgemeinen Formel =
The novel compounds constituting the object of the invention, defined as tricyclic ethers, are represented by the general formula
and
…wherein... R1 represents a substituted alkyl *residue* from xxx to xxx

: This is more a question than a comment. I come across '-rest' frequently in German patents. Sometimes, '-gruppe' is used as well (with a different prefix), in which case I use 'group' for 'gruppe' and 'residue' for 'rest'. Can you suggest an alternative?
