  1. Organic Naming Rules

  2. Organic Compounds • Consist of mainly four elements • Carbon • Hydrogen • Oxygen • Nitrogen

  3. Why Do We Need a Separate Set of Rules? • Examine some typical organic compounds • CH4 • C2H6 Carbon tetrahydride Dicarbon hexahydride

  4. So? How about these: • C4H10 • C5H12 • Now it’s not so easy Tetracarbon decahydride Pentacarbon ??? hydride

  5. H H C H H H H H H H H C C C C H H C C C H H H H H H H H Isomers • If that’s not enough, how describing the same formula using different structures? Different Structure Same Formula Formula? Formula? C4H10 C4H10

  6. H H H C H H C H H H H H H H H H H H H C C C C C H H C C C H H C C C C H H H H H H H H H H H H C H H H So what to do? • Number of hydrogens is going to be the same, regardless of isomerism C5H12 C5H12 C5H12

  7. Solution Since number of hydrogens don’t change with isomerism, why bother naming them? Name the molecule simply based on number of CARBONS We can always add prefixes or suffixes later for differentiation

  8. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Methane Ethane Propane Butane Pentane Hexane Heptane Octane Nonane Decane Name based on number of Carbons

  9. H H C H H H H H C C H H H H H H H H H H H H C C C C C C C C H H H H H H H H H Did that Really Help? CH4 Carbon tetrahydride becomes: Methane C2H6 Dicarbon hexahydride becomes: Ethane C8H18 Octacarbon ???hydride becomes: Octane

  10. H H H H H H C H H C C C C H H H H H H H H C C C H H H H Branches • Straight-chain alkanes (Just C & H with single bonds) are now easy C4H10Butane • But how do we deal with branches? C4H10????

  11. Rules pt. 2 • Identify the longest unbranched chain of carbons • Name it as normal • Identify the branch • Name it but give it a “–yl” suffix • Put the names of all branches first, then put name of longest chain

  12. H Branch is one long H C H H H H C C C H H H H Example methyl Longest unbranched chain of carbons is three long propane Methyl Propane

  13. H H H H H C C C C H H H H H C H H H H H H H H C C C C C H H H H H H C H H C H H Practice Methylbutane Ethylpentane

  14. C C C C C C C C It doesn’t matter which way you go! (Provided you correctly pick the longest unbranched chain) C C One More Practice MethylButane

  15. Methyl H H H H H C C C C C H H H H H H C H H This is your longest uninterrupted chain C H H H Be Careful Hexane Methyl Hexane

  16. H H H H H C C C C C H H H H H H C H H H H H H H H C C C C C H H H H H H C H H H Now We Are Going To Get Into A Bit of Trouble MethylPentane MethylPentane These are different molecules!!!

  17. So Now What? • Since two different molecules can’t have the same name, we must differentiate • If we look closely, though, the only difference between them is the position of the methyl group

  18. H H H H H C C C C C H H H H H H C H H H H H H H H Here the methyl group is on the second carbon from the end Here the methyl group is on the third carbon from the end C C C C C H H H H H H C H H H Positioning 2- 3- MethylPentane MethylPentane So…

  19. Rules pt. 3 • Identify the longest unbranched chain of carbons • Name it as normal • Identify the branch • Name it but give it a “–yl” suffix • Put the names of all branches first, then put name of longest chain • Put the number of the carbon the branch is on (start numbering from the closest single end)

  20. H H H H H H H C C C C C C C H H H H H H H H C H H H H H H H H H H H C C C C C C C C H H H H H H H H H C H H H H H H H H H C C C C C C H H H H H H H C H H H Practice 2-methyl heptane 4-methyl octane 2-methyl hexane

  21. Multiple Branches • So far we’ve only had one branch • What happens when there are multiple branches? • Just add a prefix to indicate the number of a particular type of branch

  22. H C H H H H H H H H C C C C C C C H H H H H H H H C H H H Practice 2- methyl heptane 2- methyl 2-methyl, 2-methyl heptane Sounds redundant 2,2dimethylheptane

  23. H C H H H H H H H H H C C C C C C C C H H H H H H H H H C H H H H C H H C H H H H H H C C C C C H H H H H C H C H H H H H More Practice 2, 6-dimethyl octane 3 ethyl-2,4-dimethyl pentane Note that the branches are expressed in alphabetical order

  24. H H H H H C C C C H H H H H Shorthand notation Keep in mind that we have been ignoring the hydrogens for a long time. Our names have been based entirely on the positioning of the carbons. So lets now ignore the hydrogens completely!

  25. H C H H H H H H H H H H H H H H H H C C C C C C C H H C C C C C C C C H H H H H H H H H H H H H H H C H H C H H H H Is it that easy?

  26. H Shorthand notation? C H H C H H H H H H H C C C C C C H H H H H H C H C H H H H H One More 3-ethyl-2,4 dimethyl hexane

  27. Rings • Thus far we have dealt with chains that are straight or branched. • If hydrocarbons are long enough, one end can wrap around and link up with itself! • We call these cyclic hydrocarbons.

  28. Cyclic Hydrocarbons • Name the molecule as normal • Add the prefix cyclo- to the front of the name of the longest chain • Start numbering from the most “important” branch in the ring

  29. Examples Cyclohexane Cyclooctane

  30. More Examples Methyl cyclopentane Note that a number is not needed on the first example. Numbers are needed to indicate position in the second example, however. It doesn’t matter, though which is 1 and which is 2 1,2 dimethyl cyclohexane

  31. Try These 1 ethyl, 3 methy cyclobutane 3 methyl, 1 propyl cylclohexane

  32. Multiple Bonds • So far, even with the cyclic structures we have dealt only with single bonds • Carbon can make multiple bonds to another carbon • This changes the name

  33. H H H C C H H H H H H C C H Examine Structures C2H6 Ethane- notice that each carbon has four bonds What will happen to the structure if we double bond the two carbons? C2H4 Each carbon still has four bonds BUT now the hydrogens have changed!!

  34. Naming molecules with multiple bonds • Name the molecule as normal • Change the suffix of the longest chain name • Double bonds = ene • Triple bonds = yne • Use numbering and prefixes for positioning multiple bonds.

  35. H H H C C H H C C H H H H H H C C H So…. C2H6 C2H2 C2H4 ethyne Ethane ethene

  36. H C H H H H H H H H H H C C C C C C C H H H H H C C C C C H H H H H H H H H H H H H H C C C C H H H H Practice 2-heptene 1-butene 3 methyl-1-pentene

  37. Notice the two lines means the double bond is there! How about in Shorthand? 2 pentene

  38. Practice! 2-Methyl-1-propene 2,4-dimethyl-2-pentene 3-ethyl-2,4,4-trimethyl-1-pentene

  39. Tough Ones 2 methyl 1,3 butadiene 1,2dimethyl-1,4 cyclohexadiene

  40. Triples? 3, 3-dimethyl-1-butyne 1,4 cyclohexadiyne

  41. Functional Groups • A group of atoms that, when added to a hydrocarbon chain, alters the chemical properties of the chain. • Just a few different functional groups to know…

  42. Halogens Alcohols Ethers Aldehydes Ketones Carboxylic Acids Esters Amines R-F, R-Cl, R-Br, R-I R-OH R-O-R R-COH R-CO-R R-COOH R-COO-R R-NH2 Functional Groups

  43. Halides • Fluorides, Chlorides, Bromides, and Iodides • Simply name the molecule as normal but add the prefix Fluoro, Chloro, Bromo, or Iodo as necessary

  44. Cl Cl I I Halides 2, 3 dichlorohexane 3, 3 diiodo-1-pentene

  45. Alcohols • R-OH • Name like normal except add an –ol suffix

  46. OH OH H H OH H C C H H Alcohols 2 propanol 1cyclobutenol ethanol

  47. Ethers • R-O-R • Name two “R” groups with –yl endings • End name in ether • An alternative is to use R-oxy-R

  48. O O Ethers Dimethyl ether or methoxymethane Ethyl methyl ether or methoxyethane

  49. Aldehyde • R-COH • This is a carbon to oxygen double bond with a hydrogen at the end. • Name as normal except use a “-al” suffix

  50. O H H H H C C C C H H H H O H H Cl H H C C C C C H H H Cl H Aldehydes butanal 3,3 dichloropentanal
