The term 'ate' is suffix used in nomenclature or naming of chemical substances in chemistry. The suffix 'ate' is used for naming esters. Esters are organic chemical compounds which can be obtained from acids, especially oxygen acids. An acid whose molecule shows presence of a hydroxyl (-OH) group is called oxygen acid. The hydrogen atom from this hydroxyl group dissociates easily as H+ ion. The replaced atom can be any alkali group element or any other alkyl group.
The alkyl group occupies the position of the Hydrogen atom. The ester is named by this alkyl group and latter part of the name is the name of the main chain. Example: H-COO-H [Formic Acid / Methanoic Acid]. The ester formed by replacement of its H atom of the –OH group by –CH3 group [Methly Group]: H-COO-CH3. This ester will be named as: Methyl formate or Methyl methanoate.
