[Abraham Mathew]

Try the stringr package.

This should work

chemical=c("basic", "alkalin", "alkali", "acid",  " ph ", "hss")
chemical_match <- str_c(chemical, collapse = "|")
chemical_match

concept_df$match[str_detect(concept_df$concept, chemical_match)] <-
"chemical"
concept_df

> concept_df
                concept    match
