Nuffield Advanced Chemistry: Names and Formulae of Carbon Compounds *suitable for home teaching*

This Nuffield Advanced Chemistry programmed text was devised as an introduction to organic nomenclature at a time when the use of systematic IUPAC names in schools was new. This programme was intended for use as an aid to introducing organic chemistry, either as preliminary work before starting Topic 9 or during the early stages of that topic.
