### (en), (dien), etc.

Can we use these abbreviations when both naming and writing the formulas for coordination compounds?

Yes, you can use the abbreviations when naming the compound and also when writing out the formula.

Both the abbreviation and the full names are acceptable for naming.

Just make sure you remember if they have any charge associated with them.
