alkane formula and suffix
CnH2n+2
example:end in ane
propane
methane
hexane
octane
alkene formula and suffix
- CnH2n
- ene
- double bond
alkyne formula and suffix
- CNH2n-2
- yne
-triple bond
Alkene example explain
you remove ane part of alkane then you state where the double bond occurs then u add the prefix of alkene.
For example: But-2-ene
Alkyne example explain
you remove ane part of alkane then you state where the triple bond is then you add the prefix of alkyne
For example: Pent-2-yne
halogenoalkanes when to know when to use and how to state and example
when you either see F,CL,Br or I off the Carbon.
-you start by saying the number first and on which carbon it is located, then you right which halogen it is but you chop of the ine and and o then u state the alkane
example:2-Chlorobutane
alcohol when to know when to use and how to state and example
OH replaces an H and is seen in parenthesis when in formula.
- suffix is ol
when creating the example only remove the E from the alkane then write where the oh is placed then add the suffix ol
example: Butan-2-ol
aldehydes functional group
C double bond to O and single bond to H
has to be at end of the chain
aldehyde suffix and how to word
-al
- remove the e from the alkane and add al
example: pentanal
ketone functional group
similar to aldehyde but the double bond of O is in the middle or not at the end
ketone suffix and how to word
one
remove the e from the alkane then state where the O is located then write the suffix
example: pentan-2-one
carboxylic acids functional group
C is connect to a double bond of O and a single bond of OH instead of H’s
always at the end of a chain
Carboxylic acid suffix and how to word
change the e of the parent alkane to oic
example:pentanoic acid
esters functional group
C bonded to a double bond O(replacing the H) and that same C bonded to a single bond O that replaces an original C
Esters suffix and how to write
replace the e from the alkane with oate(use the chain attached to the C double bonded to O
place the name of the alkyl group in the front(use the chain attached to the single bonded O)
example: ethyl Propanoate
Ethers
O is separating the carbon atoms
naming symmetrical ethers
doesnt matter which side name alkyl group and add oxy then follow it by name of the alkane that the O is bonded to
example: Ethoxy Ethane
Naming Asymmetrical ethers
The shorter chain gets the Oxy ending while the longer chain keeps entire name
example: ethoxy Butane
Unsaturated Carbons
Akenes
alkynes
Saturated carbons
Alkane
Functional group for ketone?
Carbonyl
Functional group for Alcohol
Hydroxyl group
Primary Alcohol?
The Carbon holding the OH is bonded directly to one other carbon
Secondary Alcohol
The Carbon holding the OH is bonded directly to two other carbons
