IUPAC rules for naming a carboxylic acid:
- The longest parent carbon chain is identified that includes the carboxyl group.
- The parent chain name is changed by replacing the suffix “-e” with “-oic acid”.
- Numbering is done in a way that the carboxyl group is designated as number 1. This is not indicated in the part of the name because for
aldehyde , the carboxyl carbon is always numbered 1. - The identity and location of substituents if any has to be determined and this information has to be added in front of the IUPAC name.
- If the carboxyl
functional group is attached to a ring of carbon atoms, the ring is named and “-carboxylic acid” is added as suffix.

Concept Introduction:
For naming a carboxylic acid in IUPAC nomenclature, the suffix “-oic” is added to the parent alkane name.
