This is a lengthy PDF by Neil G. Connelly, Richard M.
Hartshorn, Ture Damhus, and Alan T. Hutton that delves very deeply into the
rules and standards governing the naming of inorganic compounds. The history and
development of chemical nomenclature form part of this document and outline the
functions and methods used to name elements, compounds, and complex ions. The
text provides detailed guidelines on nomenclature of acids, bases, salts, and
coordination complexes, including special cases such as organometallic compounds
and solid-state materials. This text is highly recommended for chemists,
educators, and students in general who aim for clear and precise systematic
naming conventions as a basis of inorganic chemistry.

This
online Wikibook from Penn State University provides an in-depth introduction to
inorganic chemistry, including synthesis, reactions, and properties of inorganic
compounds. It contains many areas of study, from molecular orbital theory and
acid-base chemistry to more advanced topics: redox stability, coordination
chemistry, crystal field theory, and so on. The book also describes the
properties of metals and alloys, including the structure, bonding, and
electronic characteristics. Discussions regarding superconductors,
semiconductors, and nanomaterials make this tool ideal for students and teachers
seeking a comprehensive yet accessible guide to inorganic chemistry.
