H. M. N. H. Irving Guide to Trivial Names, Trade Names and Synonyms for Substances Used in Analytical Nomenclature

Annotation

Guide to Trivial Names, Trade Names and Synonyms for Substances Used in Analytical Nomenclature is a list of trivial names, trade names, and synonyms for substances used in analytical chemistry, from acetol and acetylacetone to bromoxine, choline, dithiol, and zincon. This list is intended as a guide to identifying the chemical composition of substances used in analytical nomenclature. Examples of these substances are acetol, whose chemical name is 1-hydroxy-2-propanone and which is synonymous to hydroxyacetone; aspirin (salicylic acid, acetylsalicylic acid); carbazole (carbazole, dibenzopyrrole or diphenylenimine); cetrimide (hexadecyltrimethyl ammonium bromide, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide); chloroxine (5,7-dichloro-8-quinolinol, 5,7-dichloro-8-hydroxyquinoline); cumidine (cumidine, p-isopropylaniline): Dahl acid (6-amino-1-naphthalenesulfonic acid, 2-naphthylamine-5-sulfonic acid); DMG (2,3-butanedione or dioxime, dimethylglyoxime); esculetin (6,7-dihydroxycoumarin, aesculetin); gallic acid (gallic acid, 3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoic acid); glycine (glycine, aminoacetic acid or glycocoll); glyoxaline (imidazole, imidazole); hexone (4-methyl-2-pentanone, isobutyl methyl ketone); isatin (indole-2,3-dione, isatinic acid anhydride); and luminol (5-amino-2,3-dihydro-1,4-phthalazinedione, 2-aminophthaloyl cyclic hydrazide). This monograph will be a useful resource for chemists.
