It is named after the Serbian chemist Sima Lozanić, who researched it in his investigation into the symmetries exhibited by rows of paraffins (archaic term for alkanes) and isomer types and number of alkanes.
The first few lines of Lozanić's triangle are listed in (sequence A034851 in the OEIS).
The next pair of diagonals contain the alkane numbers l(6, n) (OEIS: A005993).
The sum of the nth row of Lozanić's triangle is
The sums of the diagonals of Lozanić's triangle intermix
This particular difference triangle has applications in the chemical study of catacondensed polygonal systems.
