Bite the bullet and read the IUPAC blue book?

Hi Steve – A tertiary carbon bonded to hydrogen is called, “methine”

I am helping a non-native English speaker with a “manure” problem.

I think this is error but cannot find the answer google-monkeying around:

the 2,936-2,956 cm-1 peak is the C-H stretching vibration of aliphatic methyl, methylene, and methylene
==
They correspond to “H-C-, H-C=, H-C≡”; but i don’t know how to express the “H-C≡” in English.

Benzophenone has two phenyl groups, which we can abbreviate by Ph. To differentiate them, one can call one of them Ph and the other Ph prime (abbreviated Ph’). For dihydroxybenzophenone where there is an OH group para on the Ph group and also an OH group para on the Ph’ (Ph prime) we therefore say, “p,p’-dihydroxybenzophenone)

Could you please explain the meaning of using a ‘dash’ over the repeated term as in, p,p’-dihydroxybenzophenone,
That p,p’ poses me a problem…

? Gluteraldehyde is a completely different molecule – a dialdehyde lacking any hydroxy groups…
