IUPAC naming steps

1. Identify longest chain (w/ highest priority group)


2. Number chain w/ func. groups w/ lowest #s


(in rings- # starts @ C w/ greatest substitution


3. Name substituent groups


ex: Methyl, Ethyl, n-propyl


4. assign number to each substituent


5. complete the name

Alkanes


what is the formula for alkanes?



CnH(2n+2)


1 carbon methane


2 C ethane


3C Propane


4C Butane


5c Pentance


6C Hexane


7C Heptance


8C Octane

Alkene vs Alkane vs Alkyne

Alkanes- only single C-C Bonds


Alkenes- contain a C- C double bond


Alkynes- contain a C-C Triple Bond


*double triple bond w/ lowest number like a substituent




ex: 2-butene or but-2-ene


2 C-C double bonds 1,3-butaDIene





Alcohols


common name of 2-propanol and ethanol


suffix for two alcohol group


-two alcohols on same carbon is called:


- two alcohols on adjacent carbons are called



end in -ol


Chain is numbered w/ attached OH


*takes precedence over multiple bonds


b/c higher oxidation state of its carbon


common names to know


ethyl alcohol - ethanol


Isopropyl alcohol- is same as 2-propanol




x2 OH same carbon: Geminal Diols


** also called hydrates: they spontaneously dehydrate (lose H2O) to form carbonyl C=O


x2 OH on adjacent carbons: Vicinal



Aldehydes and ketones


both contain a ____ group

Aldehyde: chain-terminating R-COH


- aldehydes end in -al ex: butanal


common aldeyhydes:


methanal HCOH---->formaldehyde


Ethanal CH3COH---> acetaldehyde


proponal CH3CH2COH---> propionaldehyde


Ketone R-CO-R both are only connecting to alkyl chains


- ketones end in -one


common ketones


2 Propanone CH3COCH3 ---> acetone



Many carbons can be named relative to a carbonyl group


what are the successive carbons referred to?

Adjacent carbon to a carbonyl group= alpha


then beta, gamma, and delta carbons


**same on both sides of the carbonyl


--important for alpha carbon acidity

Carboxylic Acids


contain two groups: ___ and ___ connected to a carbon




what are some of the common carboxylic acid names?



contain a C=O and C-OH or together -COOH


- end in -oic acid


**highest priority functional groups on MCAT


b/c it is the most oxidized- three bonds to Oxygen


common names


methanoic acid HCOOH---> formic acid


Ethanoic Acid CH3COOH ---> acetic acid


Propanoic Acid: CH3CH2COOH --> Propionic acid



Carboxylic Acid derivatives Includes (3)

Esters: common: COOH, the -OH --> -O-R (alkoxy group-


naming


1. name the group attached to the ester(@oxygen)


this goes in the front of name


2. Name the parent acid, ends with -oate from -oic acid


ex: formic acid+ butanol ---> butyl methanoate




Amides


-OH replaced with amino group(contains N)


-same as ester- ends with amide


ex: N-ethyl propanamide




Anyhydrides ( an-without, hydo-water)


- H2O removed, bond between x2 COOH groups oic acid---> oic anyhydride




- if equal C on both sides, do not repeat


ex: ethanoic anyhydride (2C each side of R-O-R)
