Naming question about salt

Hi, We find the naming generator can name compounds of hydrochloride or hydrobromide as chemdraw does,  but for compounds of sulfate, acetate and 2,2,2-trifluoroacetate, the name seems to be combination of two molecule, such as "acetic acid;phenylmethanamine"


Could you tell us how to get the better name  as chemdraw?

Hi,


The generated names will not have the ';' in the upcoming 5.4 version for the charged cases (sulfate, acetate, etc...). I'm not sure if that should also apply to acetic acid and what could be the specific rule (sometimes fragments are just drawn next to each other, without forming a salt). What would you expect in general?


Best regards,


Daniel
