Nomenclature It is important that organic compounds are corrrectly named so that there can be absolutely no confusion about what compounds are actually being reported or described. The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (I. U. P. A. C. ) which was formed in 1919, reviews to standardise nomenclature. The following guidelines for organic nomenclature are based on the definitive rules published by I. U. P. A. C. 1 (the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry). I. U. P. A. C. Nomenclature for Organic Chemistry, Sections A, B and C (combined edition), Butterworths Scientific Publications, London, 1971.

Rules for Naming Organic Compounds The following steps are taken in naming an alkane

Rules for Naming Organic Compounds The following steps are taken in naming an alkane with a branched chain: 1) Select the longest continuous carbon chain and select the appropriate alkane name. 2) Number the longest chain so that substituents have the lowest possible numbers. 3) Name all of the side chains (carbon chains attached to the longest chain) and list them in alphabetical order. 4) use multiplicative prefixes such as “di-“ (2), “tri-“(3), "tetra-" (4) etc. if two, three or four similar substititents are attached. and insert location numbers before each of the side chain names.

The Alkenes (Cn. H 2 n) ene=One double bond, diene =two double bonds (a)

The Alkenes (Cn. H 2 n) ene=One double bond, diene =two double bonds (a) Select and name the longest carbon chain containing the double bond. (b) Change the “ane" of the alkane name to “ene". (c) Number the carbon chain giving the double bond the lowest possible location number. (d) Name side chains in the usual way.

The Alkynes (Cn. H 2 n-2) These are named in identical fashion to alkenes

The Alkynes (Cn. H 2 n-2) These are named in identical fashion to alkenes except that "ene" in the alkene name is replaced by: "yne" 1 triple bond, "diyne" 2 triple bonds "triyne" 3 triple bonds etc.

COMPOUNDS CONTAINING HALOGENS AND NITRO GROUPS The halogens (F, Cl, Br, I) and the

COMPOUNDS CONTAINING HALOGENS AND NITRO GROUPS The halogens (F, Cl, Br, I) and the nitro group (-NO 2) are always named as prefixes in the same way as side chains on hydrocarbons. The prefixes are as follows:

Alcohols -OH as the principle functional group, here “ane” is converted into “ol”

Alcohols -OH as the principle functional group, here “ane” is converted into “ol”

Aldehydes formally derived from acids having a trivial name are named by adding "-aldehyde"

Aldehydes formally derived from acids having a trivial name are named by adding "-aldehyde" to the trivial stem (see Section 3), otherwise the suffix “-al” is used.

Ketones are named by adding the suffix "-one" to the stem of the parent

Ketones are named by adding the suffix "-one" to the stem of the parent carbon chain.

Carboxylic acids are named by identifying the longest carbon chain containing the carboxylic acid

Carboxylic acids are named by identifying the longest carbon chain containing the carboxylic acid functional group and using this carbon chain as the stem for the carboxylic acid name. The ending "-oic acid" is added to the stem to indicate that the compound is a carboxylic acid.

Ethers • In the naming of ethers as alkyloxy derivatives of alkanes, it is general practice to shorten • the names of compounds containing four or less carbons to alkoxy derivatives (i. e. , omit the • syllable "-yl-°'), e. g. , methyloxy becomes methoxy, ethyloxy becomes ethoxy, but pentyloxy

Amine: The systematic method of naming amines, whereby "-amine" is added to the principal chain name is, in practice, only rarely used an older method is in common (I. U. P. A. C. accepted) use.
