Sometimes a number between [[hyphen]]s is inserted before it to state which atom the =O atom is attached to. This suffix was extracted from the word [[acetone]]. The final "-e" disappears if it is followed by another suffix that starts with a vowel. == See also == {{wiktionary}} *[[IUPAC nomenclature of organic chemistry]] </br> {{Orgchemsuffixes}} [[Category:Chemical nomenclature]] {{orgchem-stub}}
