Nitro compounds, prefixes

The prefix trans tells us that the triphenylphosphine groups occupy opposite corners of a square rather than adjacent corners (cis). The use of chloro in the name (instead of chloride ) implies the absence of discrete chloride ions, as in [Ir(CO)(PPh3)2]+Cr. Names, as opposed to formulae, are easier to index or to store in a data bank for the rapid retrieval of information on compounds having specific structural features. If a chemist wished to collect the available thermodynamic data for inorganic nitrites, a computer search of formulae containing NOz or some multiple thereof would produce a vast number of organic nitro-compounds of no... [Pg.88]

The classes listed in Table 1-12 are families which exhibit the same regularity of boiling points, melting points, densities, and other properties seen in the hydrocarbon families we have already studied. Some of the families are named with characteristic suffixes while others have prefixes, or even separate words-in the names. For instance, alcohols are named with the suffix -ol. Ketones are named with the suffix -one. Amine and nitriles are named with the full suffix according to the family name. Ethers and halides usually have the full family name as a separate word, and nitro- and organometallic compounds have the prefix nitro- or the prefix corresponding to the hydrocarbon part of the organometallic molecule. [Pg.35]

Since the name ethylenediamine already contains di, we use bis- instead of di- to indicate the presence of two en ligands. The name for N02 as a ligand is nitro, and the prefix di- indicates the presence of two N02 ligands. The anion is sulfate. Therefore, the compound s name is... [Pg.947]
