Using common names

Postby Catherine_Zhang_1H » Sun Mar 05, 2017 7:20 pm

When do we know when to use common names? I know Lavelle said for substituents but how familiar should we be in knowing them and what should indicate whether we use IUPAC or the common name for substituents?

We will accept both (strictly) IUPAC and common name for substituents.
