The last two cross each other.

One with a claim to possess organic compound(5)
pattern:
I - I - -

I've gone through all the organic compounds but just can't get anything to match.


2nd one - the last letter of the one above crosses with the 2nd letter of this one.

Eyes right! Eyes left!(4)
pattern:

- - - S
I thought this one would be IRIS but as above, I just can't find anything to fit the organic compound that includes the 'R' (or without it!)

Would really appreciate some help. Thank you

1 Is possibly Amino if the first I is incorrect ?

Hi emeritus,
The 'I' comes from this one:
Registering dislike, quietly leaves the dais(5)

ODIUM is PODIUM minus the 'P' (quiet)
Could it be lens?
Just had a thought it could be Imino (Acid)

Odium looks correct
And then it could be Boss as in Boss Eyed
I thought it was spelt amino but maybe there's an alternative spelling.

Hi NoMercy,
Your right!
I put I-I-E and IMIDE came up. Even though it isn't listed, it is classed as a compound.

Thanks for your help.

Thanks everyone,
Just realised IMINE came up as well and that one fits the clue better - ...'claim to possess'

Good stuff! :-)
2 SEES because it's palindromic
