Systematic nomenclature of organic compounds

Systematic Nomenclature of Organic Compounds aids chemical communication through the presentation of methods and their use in forming reasonable, acceptable, and unambiguous names for organic compounds.

It uses common language so that nomenclature is useful and understandable for both undergraduate and graduate students.

A diagrammatic presentation is used to provide a comparison of different nomenclature operations for some compounds with some typical structures.

Examples are discussed in a systematic step-by-step approach. This text contains fourteen chapters covering all aspects of nomenclature, including Main Principles, Classification, IUPAC Nomenclature of Hydrocarbons, Nomenclature of compounds with two different functional groups, Aromatic Hydrocarbons, Fused Polycylic Aromatic and Unsaturated Hydrocarbon, Carbocyclic Compounds, Heterocyclic Compounds, Bridged Systems, Spiro Hydrocarbons, Terpenoids, Steroids, Macrocyclic Compounds, and Stereochemical notations.
