Talk:List of compounds with carbon number 1

Latest comment: 7 years ago by RJFJR in topic Wrong name (?)

Where are all the rest of the halomethanes? Also, I suspect there are non-existent compounds listed here.

edit

This article omits several halomethanes. For example, I can't find difluoromethane, C2H2F2, here, and the halomethane article includes it, plus it has an article of its own. That's just one example; there are others. If anyone wishes to include all possible halomethanes here, I've already worked out the names for all 69 of them, and that list may be found here: http://robertlovespi.wordpress.com/2013/01/18/halogenated-forms-of-methane-an-alphabetical-list/. That page does not include formulas, but they can be easily derived from the names.

I also suspect there are many non-existent compounds listed here, but have no proof of this.

My suggestion is to simply delete this page, but I'm not going to do that as a unilateral act. Such a drastic step, I think, should be discussed first. RobertLovesPi (talk) 15:32, 1 June 2014 (UTC)Reply

Wrong name (?)

edit

CBe2 beryllium dicarbide looks wrong to me, the name seems to be saying two carbons when the formula says two berylliums (which makes more sense). But I'm not sure what the correct name should be. RJFJR (talk) 21:27, 12 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

Yeah, that's should be Beryllium carbide. I checked it and then I changed it. RJFJR (talk) 01:59, 14 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
