Much appreciated.

Top right is 2-phenyl-1H-indol-1-ol
Bottom right is (E)-2-phenyl-3-(phenylimino)-3H-indole 1-oxide

Thank you very much, did you just input the structure into that program and It came up with the names?

As an added question, the first compound is an oxime but what class of compound is the second one?

For naming, try ChemDraw, ChemSketch (freeware version available), or MarvinSketch.
Individual results may vary

Just draw the structures and click on the corresponding button!
The second one is an indole, says it in the name!

Right, of course.  ::)

Well I'll certainly check out the program.
