Abstract:
The International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes currently caters for the names of ranks from class to subspecies. The form of names and their typification is dealt with under Rules 7-22. The nature of names at different ranks has a direct influence on the structure of the Code. However, with minor changes it is possible to simplify the structure and the links between names and their nomenclatural types, even if the proposed solution may cause some changes that create a degree of upheaval in the short term.

Common Names of Aldehydes and Ketones
Common names of aldehydes are derived from the names of their corresponding acid. For instance, the two-carbon aldehyde–acetaldehyde derives its name from the corresponding acid–acetic acid. Similarly, formaldehyde derives its name from formic acid and benzaldehyde from benzoic acid.
Aliphatic ketones are named by suffixing the word “ketone” to the...
