Symproportionation → {{no redirect|1=Comproportionation}} — More offical, more widely used, more correct etymologically. Physchim62 (talk) 13:00, 18 September 2010 (UTC)

To expand on the three reasons above:

The IUPAC Gold Book lists both [http://goldbook.iupac.org/C01217.html comproportionation] and [http://goldbook.iupac.org/S06215.html symproportionation] as synonyms; however, comproportionation seems to be preferred, as you can see at the entry for [http://goldbook.iupac.org/D01799.html disproportionation].
Neither term is very widely used, but symproportionation gets 1,040 Google hits, while comproportionation gets 11,800.
The term is the opposite of disproportionation (a much more widely used term). In Latin, the opposite of the prefix dis- is con-, with assimilation of the "n" to "m" before "p". The prefix syn- is the opposite of anti-.

::Also, syn - as Wiktionary now says - is Greek; its rare use in Latin or with Latin roots in English will jar on some readers unless there is a clear reason or habit supporting it. I see none here. Support. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 16:29, 18 September 2010 (UTC)

::Support, yep, Google scholar confirms com- as much more common.--Kotniski (talk) 08:54, 27 September 2010 (UTC)

Assessment comment

{{Substituted comment|length=243|lastedit=20120101015518|comment=This article should be called comproportionation, since that word gives about 7000 google hits, vs 700 for synproportionation.

Comproportionation reactions without sources or need checking

The reaction of iodine with iodine trifluoride at −78 °C in CCl₃F yield iodine fluoride:

:I₂ + IF₃ → 3 IF [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Iodine_monofluoride&oldid=381626531]

The compound is produced by the reaction of silver and silver(I) fluoride:

:Ag + AgF → Ag₂F [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Silver_subfluoride&oldid=930703877]

At 400 °C, {{chem|XeF|4}} reacts with xenon to form {{chem|link=Xenon difluoride|XeF|2}}:

:XeF₄ + Xe → 2 XeF₂ [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Xenon_tetrafluoride&oldid=963902950]

Uranium trifluoride can be obtained by reacting uranium(IV) fluoride with aluminium at 900 °C or with uranium:

: $\mathrm{UF_4 + Al \longrightarrow UF_3 + AlF}$

: $\mathrm{3 \ UF_4 + U \longrightarrow 4 \ UF_3}$ [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Uranium_trifluoride&oldid=979711348]
