You can write instead: @@latex:\ce{^{238}U}@@ or you can define a macro, e.g.,: #+MACRO: ce @@latex:\ce{$1}@@ and then use {{{ce(^{238}U)}}} Also, ^2H is not recognized as superscript _on purpose_. Per Org syntax, you have to add a non-blank character before the caret. Otherwise, there would be ambiguity between underline (e.g., _under_) and subscript (_under). And superscript syntax follows subscript's. In this case, you can probably use a math snippet, e.g., \(^2\)H Regards, -- Nicolas Goaziou
