:Talk:Preferred IUPAC name

The current version of the recommendations for Preferred IUPAC Names (PINs) in organic chemistry is presented in Nomenclature of Organic Chemistry – IUPAC Recommendations and Preferred Names 2013 (Blue Book).{{cite book | title = Nomenclature of Organic Chemistry : IUPAC Recommendations and Preferred Names 2013 (Blue Book) | publisher = The Royal Society of Chemistry | date = 2014 | location = Cambridge | doi = 10.1039/9781849733069-FP001 | isbn = 978-0-85404-182-4}} The current article describes the situation in 2009. – Emeldir (talk) 13:07, 11 September 2016 (UTC)

5-(3-phenylmethoxypropyl)-1H-imidazole 2409:4081:E98:D79A:0:0:BB89:DA12 (talk) 12:11, 18 September 2022 (UTC)

:{{ping|2409:4081:E98:D79A:0:0:BB89:DA12}} do you have a source on that? -- Python Drink (talk) 21:44, 18 September 2022 (UTC)

Based on what I have seen, the determination is often arbitrary. Here is a [https://chemistry.stackexchange.com/questions/82382/choice-of-preferred-iupac-names stack exchange] post over that.

So, should we state in the article that the PIN is determined by the IUPAC and not systematically obtained? BrightSunMan (talk) 19:11, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
