Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The name of the organic compounds should be given.
Concept introduction:
Organic compounds are named systematically by using IUPAC rules.
Name of the organic compounds are given according to the number of carbon present in the molecule for example
A molecule having one carbon atom, the molecule name will start with meth etc.…
If any halogens are present in the molecule, the name of the halogens as follows.
Naming the substituted
- (1) Name the parent alkane (long alkyl chain)
- (2) Number the carbon
- (3) Name and number the substituent
If the molecules have the multiple substituents, the compound named as di, tri, tetra, penta, ect.
If the molecules having
The given compound is an alcohol
Example is given below
The given compound is an acid (
The amides are derivatives of acids and it is named as the ending of alkane with amide.
For example
If the molecule is ester,
Esters end with “ate”
Example
