There are more than 200 translations of "termo" into English in the Proz glossary; however, none in this sense as used in chemistry, as far as I was able to ascertain. I only took two chemistry courses as an undergraduate, and really do not understand if its use is simply "term" or something else apparently simple and obvious, or if it has something to do directly with chemistry that is beyond me.

Thank you for your help.

Alem disso, como pode ser visto na página 8, item 3.15 do referido "DOC. 17", mesmo que o termo anteriormente empregado (benzila) estivesse incorreto, já que, de acordo com a requerente, ο versado na técnica esperaria que a molécula inteira estivesse conjugada, não há qualquer suporte de que ο termo correto seria fenila.

the term (as in nomenclature/terminology)

That's my take.

I understood that in DOC.17, the term "benzila" (benzyl) was used instead of "fenila" (phenyl). Now, your previous questions make more sense. Someone misuded the term. Perhaps a typo. Someone entered the incorrect information. Context is king.
