Talk:Bismuthyl (ion)

contains what?
Maybe it is because I am not a native speaker, but I don't understand this sentence from the introduction: Unlike other inorganic radicals such as hydroxyl, carbonyl, chromyl, uranyl or vanadyl, according to the current IUPAC rules, names such as bismuthyl and antimonyl (stibil) for BiO+ and SbO+ are not recommended, since individual molecules of these groups do not actually contain, and their presence in compounds preferably referred to as oxides. The reasoning after "since" is unclear, as the wording does not tell what is lacking (= do not contain) in individual molecules. Furthermore, isn't a better phrase for the concluding remark "should be referred to"? --Gunnar (talk) 10:09, 26 February 2024 (UTC)
