- The yne suffix (ending) indicates an alkyne or cycloalkyne.
- The longest chain chosen for the root name must include both carbon atoms of the triple bond.
- The root chain must be numbered from the end nearest a triple bond carbon atom. If the triple bond is in the center of the chain, the nearest substituent rule is used to determine the end where numbering starts.
