Nomenclature of Inorganic Chemistry
This article is about the book. For the general rules of nomenclature, see Inorganic nomenclature.
Nomenclature of Inorganic Chemistry, commonly referred to by chemists as the Red Book, is a collection of recommendations on inorganic nomenclature published at irregular intervals by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC). The last full edition was published in 2005,[1] in both paper and electronic versions.
