FRRB Free Radical Nomenclature Page 1 of 8 Free Radical Nomenclature, Suggestions Garry R. Buettner, Ph.D. Free Radical and Radiation Biology Program Med Labs B180K The University of Iowa Iowa City, IA 52242-1181 2018.01.17 The purpose of this document is to provide an easy reference to some of the language of Redox Radical Biology. We provide here a beginning guideline to nomenclature and notation for free radicals and related redox species. The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) does not provide suggestions on all abbreviations we might use; attached are the suggestions of the FRRB Program at The University of Iowa. Guidelines for nomenclature in Free Radical Biology can be found in [1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and references therein]. I. Free Radical and Oxidant Notation and Nomenclature In chemical formulae, as well as when using abbreviations, a free radical is denoted by a superscript dot to the right preceding any charge. This placement of the dot will not interfere with indication of mass number, atomic number, or composition. – – H O2 CO2 HO H3C NO 2 O2 would be the radical notation for ground state dioxygen, O2.
