Extension and Revision of the Nomenclature for Spiro Compounds
(Recommendations 1999)

Errata

The following items were incorrectly printed in Pure Appl. Chem., 71, 531-558 (1999). They have been corrected in the Web version.

SP-1.5.1 example 1 the last name is incorrect. This should read:
trispiro[2.1.25.1.29.03]undecane

SP-1.7.2 example 2 the name is incorrect. This should read:
6-thiadispiro[2.4.28.43.33]heptadecane

SP-4.2 example 1 the name is incorrect. This should read:
spiro[1,2-benzodithiole-3,2'-[1,3]benzodithiole]

SP-4.3 example 2 the numbering of the structure and name have been corrected to:


6-spiro[bis([1,3,2]benzodioxathiole)-2,2":2',2"-[1,2,3]benzoxadithiole].

SP-6.2 example 1 alternative name. This should read trispiro[bis(cyclohexane)-1,3":1',6"-[1,2,4,5,7,8]hexoxonane-9",2'''-triyclo[3.3.1.13,7]decane].

SP-6.4.1 example 1. The name should be:
trispiro{bis(cyclohexane)-1,4':1",6'-furo[3,4-d][1,3]oxathiole-2',14'''-[7]oxadispiro[5.1.5.2]pentadecane}
(delete hyphen before last square brackets and change commas to full-stops inside these brackets)

SP-6.4.1 example 3. The name is derived using criterion (b) not (d).

SP-7.1 example 5 name should be 2λ5-spiro[1,3,2-benzodioxaphosphole-2,11'-[1,3,2]oxazaphospholo[3',2':2,3][1,2,4,3]triazaphospholo[4,5-a]pyridine] (one word and delete hyphen between triaza and phospholo).

SP-7.1 example 6 the CAS index name should be spiro[1,3,2-benzodioxaphosphole-2,13'λ5-[1H,4H,8H]benzo[1,9]phosphinolizino[3,4,5,6,7-defg]acridophosphine.

SP-7.1 example 7 name should be 2H,2'H,6H,6'H-8λ6,8'-spirobi[[1,2]oxathiolo[4,3,2-hi][2,1]benzoxathiole] (corrected numbering of tricyclic ring system for both structure and name of spiro derivative).

SP-9.2 example 3 name should be (TBPY-5-12-C)-2-phenoxy-2λ5-spiro[1,3,2-dithiaphosphinane-2,2'-phenanthro[9,10-d][1,3,2]dithiaphosphole] (move last hyphen to end of first line).

SP-9.2 example 6 name should be (OC-6-22-A)-1,1-difluoro-3,3,3',3'-tetrakis(trifluoromethyl)-3,3'H-1λ6,1'-spirobi[[2,1]benzoxathiole] (delete the repeat 1,1-difluoro-)
