3. Basic Naming of Hydrocarbons
Hydrocarbon names are based on: 1) type,
2) # of carbons, 3) side chain type and position
1) name will end in -ane, -ene, or -yne
2) the number of carbons is given by a “prefix”
1 meth- 2 eth- 3 prop- 4 but- 5 pent-
6 hex- 7 hept- 8 oct- 9 non- 10 dec-
Actually, all end in a, but a is dropped when next
to a vowel. E.g. a 6 C alkene is hexene
Q - What names would be given to these:
7C, 9C alkane
2C, 4C alkyne
1C, 3C alkene
heptane, nonane
ethyne, butyne
methene, propene

CH3Naming Side Chains
• The names of molecules
with branches are based
on: side chains, root
• The “root” or “parent chain” is usually the
longest possible hydrocarbon chain.
• The root must include multiple bonds if they are
present. If a cyclic structure is present it will be
the root even if it is not the longest chain.
• Side chains are also called “side branches” or
“alkyl groups”. Their names end in -yl.
Common side chains :
-CH3 methyl, -CH2CH3 ethyl, -CH2CH2CH3 propyl
2,3-dimethylpentane

10. IUPAC Rules for Naming Hydrocarbons
1. Choose the correct ending: -ane, -ene, or -yne
2. Determine the longest carbon chain. Where a
double or triple bond is present, choose the
longest chain that includes this bond. If there is a
cyclic structure present, the longest chain starts
and stops within the cyclic structure.
3. Assign numbers to each C of the parent chain.
For alkenes and alkynes the first carbon of the
multiple bond should have the smallest number.
For alkanes the first branch (or first point of
difference) should have the lowest #. Carbons in a
multiple bond must be numbered consecutively.
4. Attach a prefix that corresponds to the number of
carbons in the parent chain. Add cyclo- to the
prefix if it is a cyclic structure.
11. 5. Determine the correct name for each branch
(“alkyl” groups include methyl, ethyl, propyl, etc.)
6. Attach the name of the branches alphabetically,
along with their carbon position, to the front of the
parent chain name. Separate numbers from
letters with hyphens (e.g. 4-ethyl-2-methyldecane)
7. When two or more branches are identical, use
prefixes (di-, tri-, etc.) (e.g. 2,4-dimethylhexane).
Numbers are separated with commas. Prefixes
are ignored when determining alphabetical order.
(e.g. 2,3,5-trimethyl-4-propylheptane)
8. When identical groups are on the same carbon,
repeat the number of this carbon in the name.
(e.g. 2,2-dimethylhexane)

Same molecular formula, different molecular structures.
Two types: structural and geometric isomers.
1. Structural Isomers: molecules with same chemical
formula, but different molecular structures.

25. Isomers (cont’d)
2. Geometric Isomers: differ only in the geometry of their
substituted groups.
cis- 2 - butene trans- 2 - butene
cis-configuration: substituted groups are on the same side as the
double bond.
trans-configuration: substituted groups are on the opposite sides
of the double bond.

31. Aromatic Hydrocarbons
Aromatic hydrocarbons are hydrocarbons that have six-membered
carbon rings and delocalized electrons. Benzene is the primary
aromatic hydrocarbon.
Benzene has the chemical formula C6H6 and can also be thought of
as 1,3,5-cyclohexatriene (hexene).
Benzene can also be represented graphically like this.
33. Functional Groups
• Besides our basic hydrocarbon classes, we can add
other elements/ions, groups of elements to an
organic structure = Functional Groups
• R = radical or, in this case, represents C
• Alcohols (R-OH), ethers (R-O-R), carboxylic
acids (R-COOH), aldehydes (R-COH) – what are
the others presented in the book?
• Identifying these!
• Naming these (all have their own endings)!
36. Classes of Organic Compounds
A functional group gives an organic compound properties that are
very different from those of corresponding hydrocarbons.
Some examples:
1. Alcohols: are organic compounds that contain one or more
hydroxyl groups. The general formula for alcohols is
R-OH (rememeber that “R” stands for the rest of the
molecule.)
Glycerol:
1,2,3-propanetriol
Ethanol:
1-ethanol
37. Classes of Organic Compounds (ctn’d)
2. Ethers: are organic compounds in which two hydrocarbon
groups are bonded to the same oxygen atom. This can
can be represented by the formula R-O-R.
Diethyl Ether:
Dioxane:
Dimethyl Ether:
38. Classes of Organic Compounds (ctn’d)
3. Aldehydes and ketones: contain the carbonyl group:
Aldehyde: organic compound in which the carbonyl group is
attached to a carbon atom at the end of a carbon chain.
Ketone: organic compound in which the carbonyl group is
attached to carbon atoms within the chain.
Aldehyde Ketone
39. Classes of Organic Compounds (ctn’d)
4. Carboxylic Acids: are organic compounds that contain the
carboxyl functional group. A member of this class of organic
compounds can be represented by the general formula:
5. Esters: are organic compounds that have carboxylic acid groups
in which the hydrogen of the hydroxyl group has been replaced
by an alkyl group. Observe:
40. Classes of Organic Compounds (ctn’d)
Many esters have distinctive fruit-like odors, which has led to their
commonplace use in artificial flavorings and fragrances. Examples:
