The parent structure is the longest continuous chain that contains the triple bond, and the positions of both the substituents and the triple bond are indicated by numbers. According to this system the simplest alkyne should be named ethyne however, this compound commonly is called acetylene. The other alkynes are usually named according to the IUPAC system.

To add even more complexity to an already daunting challenge, many additives are disclosed by trade name, not chemical name or CAS number. This handbook aims to address all of these items by providing a listing that can be cross referenced by trade name, chemical name, CAS number, and even key mass unit ions from the GC/MS run. This handbook serves as a library of additives that can be used to identify individual compounds commonly found in plastics.

From the structure of an amino acid, we can see that the name is not very precise. The compounds commonly called amino acids are more precisely called a-amino-carboxylic acids. 

Two compounds common in plant metabolism are believed to be precursors of isoprenoid cytokinins in plants adenosine-5 -monophosphate (AMP) and A -isopentenylpyrophos-phate (iPP). As a final product of the mevalonate pathway, the latter substance serves also as a precursor for a wide spectrum of metabolites including some other plant hormones, as abscisic acid, gibberellins and brassinosteroids. The hypothetical scheme of reactions resulting in the formation of iPA, Z and DHZ is given in Fig. 2. The enzyme of entry into isoprenoid cytokinin formation is A -isopentenylpyrophosphate 5 -AMP-A -iso-pentenyltransferase (EC 2.5.1.8, trivially named cytokinin synthetase ). This enzyme activity was first detected in a cell-free preparation from the slime mould Dictyostelium discoideum [7,8]. Later the enzyme from higher plants (cytokinin-independent tobacco callus [9,10] and immature Zea mays kernels [11]) was described and the data were recently summarised in [12], The enzyme is very specific as far as the substrate is concerned [13,14] only the nucleotide AMP can be converted and only iPP (with a double bond in A position) may function as a side chain donor.

We have come across one of the great bonding mechanisms because opposite charges attract one another, and cations and anions are oppositely charged, it follows that atoms that form these ions will clump together into a compound. Common salt, sodium chloride, is an excellent example of this type of compound formation. Sodium (Na, from its Latin name natrium) lies... 

The most widely used herbicide is 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D). The corresponding trichloro- compound (common name 2,4,5-T) has also been shown to be highly effective, but it was banned by the EPA because of a number of health problems associated with its use. 

As with many organic compounds, common names for certain diols and triols have persisted. Compounds containing two hydroxyl groups on different carbons are often referred to as glycols. Ethylene glycol and propylene glycol are synthesized from ethylene and propylene, respectively—hence their common names ...

As mono- and sesquiterpenes contain 10 or 15 carlxMi atoms arranged in various branched and often cyclic structures, the chemical systematic nomenclature according to lUPAC [23] results in complex names that are used in handbooks and databases. For a practical use for frequently occurring or used compounds, common names have been applied, mostly derived from prominent plant sources, as pinene from Pinus, the genus of the fir trees or eucal3q)tol from the eucalyptus oils. 

Cofactors that are organic molecules are called coenzymes. Coenzymes are derived from organic compounds commonly known as vitamins. The first such compound recognized to be essential in the diet was an amine (vitamin Bj), which led scientists to conclude incorrectly that all such compounds were amines. As a result, they were originally called vitamines ( amines required for life ). The e was later dropped from the name. Table 24.1 lists the vitamins and their chemically active coenzyme forms.
