Chemical nomenclature has attracted attention since the beginning of chemistry. The need to exchange information and therefore propose nomenclature has persisted and the responsibility for providing nomenclature to the chemical community has been assigned to the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry, whose Rules for Inorganic Nomenclature have been published and revised in 1958 and 1970. Since then many new compounds have appeared, particularly with regard to coordination chemistry and boron chemistry, which were difficult to name from the 1970 Rules.
