It is important to keep in mind that cation names in Latin are always written with the first capital letter and anion names are always written with the first small letter (e.g: Solutĭo Natrĭi tetraborātis glycerinōsa).
II. LATIN NAMES OF ANIONS
All Latin suffixes and endings of anion names in Nominative and Genitive are listed in the table:
Latin - Nominative
Latin - Genitive
English
-as
Aluminĭi nitras
-ātis
Aluminii nitrātis
aluminium nitrate
-is
Aluminĭi nitris
-ītis
Aluminii nitrītis
aluminium nitrite
-īdum
Natrĭi chlorīdum
-īdi
Natrii chlorīdi
sodium chloride
Explanatory notes to the table:
· Anion names with the suffixes -as, -is are Latin nouns of the 3rd declension. The letter -s-in Latin names accords with the letter -t- in English names:
E.g:
· citras - citrate
· phosphas - phosphate
· nitris - nitrite
· Genitive forms of anion names with suffixes -as-, -is- are formed by analogy with the nouns of the 3rd declension:
Compare:
· citras, ātis m - tuberosĭtas, ātis f
· Anion names with the suffixe -id-are Latin nouns of the 2nd declension:
E.g:
· chlorīdum, i n - chloride
· bromīdum, i n - bromide
III. Two-component names of potassium and sodium salts
Two-component names of potassium and sodium are written with a hyphen and the both parts have the same grammatical case:
Complex liniment of salicylate, isotonic solution of sodium chloride, tablets of calcium gluconate, coated tablets of tetracyclin hydrochloride, diluted solution of hydrogen peroxide, basic acetate of lead, powder of oxytetracyclin, matricary flowers for internal use, sodium hydrocitrate for injections, basic bismuth nitrate with belladonna extract, phenoxymethylpenicillin for injections, oily solution of synoestrol in ampoules, tincture of plantain leaves, milfoil herb, solution of mercury cyanide, tincture of matricary flowers, solution of sulfacyl-sodium in ampoules, solution of thiamin bromide, aloe syrup with iron, chloroform for narcosis; powder of foxglove leaves, granules of furazolidon, powder and tablets of phthivazid, oily solution of anaesthesin.
