Klappentext This reference book aids chemical communication through the presentation of methods and their use in forming reasonable, acceptabel, and unambiguous names for organic compounds. It presents a common language for both sender and receiver in any context so that the nomenclature is made useful and understandable. The book is divided into two parts. The first is a general overview of organic nomenclature, the second uses concepts from the first part to answer the question "How do I name...?." Individual chapter are concerned with almost every class of organic derivative, stressing the relationship between structure and names.
