From Future

This book attempts to discuss possible alternatives to the current system of chemical compound nomenclature as set forth by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC). These pages are generally specialized and complex. If you think there is some vital functionality that I should add before IUPAC will adopt this nomenclature system, please let me know at User Talk:Yunzhong Hou.
