Nomenclature carboxylate anions

The carboxylate anion R-COO is usually named with the suffix -ate, so acetic acid, for example, becomes acetate ion. In lUPAC nomenclature, carboxylic acids have an -oic acid suffix (e.g., octadecanoic acid). In common nomenclature, the suffix is usually -ic acid (e.g., stearic acid). 

This nomenclature has recently been accepted by both the American Chemical Society and the Chemical Society. Glucosiduronic acid should replace the term glu-curonide which has commonly been used to denote the hemiacetal of the free acid. Glucosiduronate now replaces "glucuronidate as the name of the carboxylate anion (or ester) of the hemiacetal (111).
