At some point, certain compounds have become irretrievable by their names. For example, this compound:
https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/substance/318704449

When I attempt to retrieve it by name, I get an empty list:

import pubchempy as pcp
pcp.get_compounds("2,3-Bis[[(2E,6E,10E)-3,7,11,15-tetramethylhexadeca-2,6,10,14-tetraenyl]oxy]-1-propanol", "name")

The pubchempy package was previously able to retrieve this compound by name, but no longer. One of my codes used this as an example in an educational tutorial. However, sometime in the past few months it stopped working. Any idea why?

Edit: I'm running pubchempy v 1.0.4 on ubuntu.
