nomenclature

(1/1)

newbie144:
can this be a correct nomenclature: m,m-dinitrotoluene, or do you need to use numbers instead of the meta position notation?!

newbie144:
could you also post a link to a site that would address this issue, if you know of any?! thanks  :)

Donaldson Tan:
i was never taught on using 2ms in the same name. just follow standard IUPAC names

dexangeles:
i agree with geodome

if both nitros are meta then i guess it should be 3,5-dinitrotoluene
