Stock nomenclature for inorganic compounds is a widely used system of chemical nomenclature developed by the German chemist Alfred Stock and first published in 1919. In the "Stock system", the oxidation states of some or all of the elements in a compound are indicated in parentheses by Roman numerals.




Style


Contrary to the usual English style for parentheses, there is no space between the end of the element name and the opening parenthesis: for AgF, the correct style is "silver(I) fluoride" not "silver (I) fluoride".
Where there is no ambiguity about the oxidation state of an element in a compound, it is not necessary to indicate it with Roman numerals: hence for NaCl, sodium chloride will suffice; sodium(I) chloride(−I) is unnecessarily long and such usage is very rare.




Examples


FeCl2: iron(II) chloride
FeCl3: iron(III) chloride
KMnO4: potassium manganate(VII) (rarely used except in pre-university education; potassium permanganate is ubiquitous)
[Co(NH3)6]3+: hexaamminecobalt(III)




= Mixed-valence compounds

=
Co3O4: cobalt(II,III) oxide. Co3O4 is a mixed-valence compound that is more accurately described as CoIICoIII2O4, i.e. [Co2+][Co3+]2[O2−]4.
Sb2O4: antimony(III,V) oxide. Sb2O4 is better formulated as SbIIISbVO4, i.e. [Sb3+][Sb5+][O2−]4.
