▪ I. -in, suffix1 Chem. A modification of the chemical suffix -ine5, introduced into systematic nomenclature by Hofmann a 1860, used systematically in Watts' Dict. Chem. in 1866, and subsequently adopted by the Chemical Society, for the names of neutral substances, such as glycerides, glucosides, bitter principles, colouring matters, and proteids, which are thus distinguished from names of alkaloids and basic substances in -ine. Examples, albumin, casein, fibrin, globulin, mucin, myosin, pepsin; cerebrin, chitin, chondrin, gelatin, lecithin; acetin, alizarin, aloïn, arbutin, cerotin, curcumin, dextrin, hæmatin, indigotin, inulin, isatin, palmitin, purpurin, salicin, ulmin, vanillin. Some of these were formerly spelt with -ine, and in that spelling had passed into popular use before the rectification of the nomenclature, esp. dextrine, gelatine, margarine, which are still commonly so spelt in non-scientific use. Also used systematically to form the names of certain unsaturated six-membered heterocyclic monocyclic compounds having no nitrogen atom in the ring, as dioxin. Cf. -ine5.
1881Chemical Society, Instructions to Abstractors ⁋16 Basic substances should invariably be indicated by names ending in -ine, as aniline, instead of anilin, the termination -in being restricted to certain neutral compounds, viz. glycerides, glucosides, bitter principles, and proteids, such as palmitin, amygdalin, albumin. 1928[see -ine5]. 1940in Patterson & Capell Ring Index 21. 1957 E. H. Rodd Chem. Carbon Compounds IVa. 4 Six membered rings in their least hydrogenated forms have names ending in ‘-in’ when non-nitrogenous and ‘-ine’ when nitrogenous. ▪ II. -in, suffix2 an obs. variant of -ine1 in adjs., as feminin, genuin, etc.; also an occasional variant of -ine4:—L. -īna, as in ruin. ▪ III. -in, suffix3 The adverb in used as a suffix originally designating a communal act of protest by Negroes in the United States against racial segregation (cf. sit-in); subsequently indicating any group protest or large gathering for some common purpose.
