Concept introduction:
The skeletal structure of the compound is the shortcut representation of the compound. It gives information about the bonding between the groups along with the geometry of the molecule. The skeletal structure is also known as a line-angle structure.
The skeletal structure of the compound shows only basic atoms which form the compound along with the
In the IUPAC name of an organic compound, the number before the substituent represents the position of the substituent. The functional group may be represented as a suffix or as a prefix. Halogens are represented by ‘halo’ prefix. For example: if fluorine is substituted in the hydrocarbon chain, ‘fluoro’ prefix is used. The suffix for an
The number of carbon atoms in the parent hydrocarbon chain is represented by the root name. For example: ‘prop’ represent three carbon atoms in the parent hydrocarbon chain. In the case of a cyclic compound, ‘cyclo’ is used before the root name.
When an alkyl group and halogen are present as substituents, the carbon
