Aldehydes and ketones are responsible for many flavors and odors that you will readily recognize: H CO O O 3 O O H H HO H Vanillin Cinnamaldehyde (R)-Carvone Benzaldehyde (Vanilla flavor) (Cinnamon flavor) (Spearmint flavor) (Almond flavor) Many important biological compounds also exhibit the carbonyl moiety, including progester- one and testosterone, the female and male sex hormones. O OH H H H H H H O O Progesterone Testosterone Simple aldehydes and ketones are industrially important; for example: O O HH H3C CH3 Formaldehyde Acetone Acetone is used as a solvent and is commonly found in nail polish remover, while formaldehyde is used as a preservative in some vaccine formulations. Aldehydes and ketones are also used as build- ing blocks in the syntheses of commercially important compounds, including pharmaceuticals and polymers. Compounds containing a carbonyl group react with a large variety of nucleophiles, affording a wide range of possible products. Due to the versatile reactivity of the carbonyl group, aldehydes and ketones occupy a central role in organic chemistry. klein_c20_001-056v1.4.indd 2 30/04/10 16.46 20.2 Nomenclature 3 20.2 Nomenclature Nomenclature of Aldehydes Recall that four discrete steps are required to name most classes of organic compounds (as we saw with alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, and alcohols): 1. Identify and name the parent. 2. Identify and name the substituents. 3. Assign a locant to each substituent. 4. Assemble the substituents alphabetically. Aldehydes are also named using the same four-step procedure. When applying this procedure for naming aldehydes, the following guidelines should be followed: When naming the parent, the suffix “-al” indicates the presence of an aldehyde group: O H Butane Butanal When choosing the parent of an aldehyde, identify the longest chain that includes the carbon atom of the aldehydic group: The parent must include HO this carbon atom Parent=Octane Parent=Hexanal When numbering the parent chain of an aldehyde, the aldehydic carbon is assigned num- ber 1, despite the presence of alkyl substituents, U bonds, or hydroxyl groups: Correct Incorrect 24 6 64 2 H 135 7 H 753 1 O OH O OH It is not necessary to include the locant in the name, because it is understood that the aldehydic carbon is the number 1 position. As with all compounds, when a chirality center is present, the configuration is indicated at the beginning of the name; for example: O H Cl (R)-2-chloro-3-phenylpropanal A cyclic compound containing an aldehyde group immediately adjacent to the ring is named as a carbaldehyde: O H Cyclohexanecarbaldehyde klein_c20_001-056v1.4.indd 3 30/04/10 16.46 4 CHAPTER 20 Aldehydes and Ketones The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) nomenclature also recognizes the common names of many simple aldehydes, including the three examples shown below: O O O HH H3C H H Formaldehyde Acetaldehyde Benzaldehyde Nomenclature of Ketones Ketones, like aldehydes, are named using the same four-step procedure. When naming the par- ent, the suffix “-one” indicates the presence of a ketone group: O Butane Butanone The position of the ketone group is indicated using a locant. The IUPAC rules published in 1979 dictate that this locant be placed immediately before the parent, while the IUPAC recom- mendations released in 1993 and 2004 allow for the locant to be placed immediately before the suffix “-one”: O 3-heptanone or 1357heptan-3-one 2 4 6 Both names above are acceptable IUPAC names. IUPAC nomenclature recognizes the common names of many simple ketones, including the three examples shown below: O O O CH3 H3CCH3 Acetone Acetophenone Benzophenone Although rarely used, IUPAC rules also allow simple ketones to be named as alkyl alkyl ketones. For example, 3-hexanone can also be called ethyl propyl ketone: O C Ethyl propyl ketone SKILLBUILDER 20.1 NAMING ALDEHYDES AND KETONES LEARN the skill *ÀÛ`iÊ>ÊÃÞÃÌi>ÌVÊ­1* ®Ê>iÊvÀÊÌ iÊvÜ}ÊV«Õ`\ O SOLUTION 8 79 STEP 1 / iÊwÀÃÌÊÃÌi«ÊÃÊÌÊ`iÌvÞÊ>`Ê>iÊÌ iÊ«>ÀiÌ°Ê ÃiÊÌ iÊ- 2 46 `iÌvÞÊ>`Ê>iÊÌ iÊ }iÃÌÊV >ÊÌ >ÌÊVÕ`iÃÊÌ iÊV>ÀLÞÊ}ÀÕ«]Ê>`ÊÌ iÊÕLiÀÊÌ iÊ 1 «>ÀiÌ° V >ÊÌÊ}ÛiÊÌ iÊV>ÀLÞÊ}ÀÕ«ÊÌ iÊÜiÃÌÊÕLiÀÊ«ÃÃLi\ 3 5 O 3-nonanone klein_c20_001-056v1.4.indd 4 30/04/10 16.46 20.2 Nomenclature 5 iÝÌ]Ê`iÌvÞÊÌ iÊÃÕLÃÌÌÕiÌÃÊ>`Ê>ÃÃ}ÊV>ÌÃ\ STEP 2 4,4-dimethyl 8 `iÌvÞÊ>`Ê>iÊÌ iÊ 79 ÃÕLÃÌÌÕiÌð STEP 3 2 46 1 ÃÃ}Ê>ÊV>ÌÊÌÊi>V Ê 3 5 ÃÕLÃÌÌÕiÌ° 6-ethyl O >Þ]Ê>ÃÃiLiÊÌ iÊÃÕLÃÌÌÕiÌÃÊ>« >LiÌV>Þ\ÊÈiÌ Þ{]{`iÌ ÞÎ>i°Ê ivÀiÊ VVÕ`}]ÊÜiÊÕÃÌÊ>Ü>ÞÃÊV iVÊÌÊÃiiÊvÊÌ iÀiÊ>ÀiÊ>ÞÊV À>ÌÞÊViÌiÀðÊ/ ÃÊV«Õ`Ê `iÃÊiÝ LÌÊiÊV À>ÌÞÊViÌiÀ°Ê1Ã}ÊÌ iÊÃÃÊvÀÊ-iVÌÊx°Î]ÊÌ iÊRÊVw}ÕÀ>ÌÊÃÊ STEP 4 ÃÃiLiÊÌ iÊ >ÃÃ}i`ÊÌÊÌ ÃÊV À>ÌÞÊViÌiÀ\ ÃÕLÃÌÌÕiÌÃÊ >« >LiÌV>Þ° STEP 5 ÃÃ}ÊÌ iÊVw}ÕÀ>ÌÊ R vÊ>ÞÊV À>ÌÞÊViÌiÀð O / iÀivÀi]ÊÌ iÊV«iÌiÊ>iÊÃÊ(R)-6-ethyl-4,4-dimethyl-3-nonanone.

    CROATICA CHEMICA ACTA CCACAA 59 (3) 547-563 (198G)1 YU ISSN 0011-1643 CCA-1668 UDC 541 Original Scientific Paper Advantages of Nodal Numbering for Uniquely Identifying Atoms in Chemical Nomenclature Alan L. Goodson 1060 Woodmere Road, CoLumbus, Ohio 43220, U.S.A. and Noel Lozac'h Institut des Sciences de la Matiere et du Rayonnement, Universite de Caen, 14032 Caen Cedex, France Received September 2, 1985 There are situations in chemical nomenclature where duplica- tion of locants creates difficulties (a) in describing modifications to chemical structures, (b) in describing stereochemistry, (c) in identifying isotopically-labeled atoms, and (d) in uniquely iden- tifying atoms for crystallography, Nodal nomenclature is shown to avoid these problems and to simplify such descriptions. INTRODUCTION The first concerted international agreements on chemical nornenclature- were made in Geneva in 18921. From these agreements has aris en the Inter- national Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC), as we know it today. IUPAC has, in general, »confined its efforts to codifying sound practices. which already existed-". IUPAC has published a set of internationally-agreed rules of organic chemistry", However, more than one sound practice is some- times described (e. g., for naming organic compounds containing phosphorus,. arsenic, antimony or bismuth) without any indication of which practice is preferred. For practical reasons, indexers of chemical literature, such as Chemical Abstracts Service and Beilstein, must be more selective, i. e. more systematic, than IUP AC and must even develop their own rules when IUP AC rules are vague or non-existent. The rules published by IUP AC include the powerful and commonly-used technique of substitutive nomenclature.

  • Alkynes • Alkynes Are Molecules That Incorporate a C≡C Triple Bond
    10.1 Alkynes • Alkynes are molecules that incorporate a C≡C triple bond. Copyright 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 10 -1 Klein, Organic Chemistry 1e 10.1 Alkynes • Given the presence of two pi bonds and their associated electron density, alkynes are similar to alkenes in their ability to act as a nucleophile. • Converting pi bonds to sigma bonds generally makes a molecule more stable. WHY? Copyright 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 10 -2 Klein, Organic Chemistry 1e 10.1 Alkyne Uses • Acetylene is the simplest alkyne. – It is used in blow torches and as a precursor for the synthesis of more complex alkynes. • More than 1000 different alkyne natural products have been isolated. – One example is histrionicotoxin, which can be isolated from South American frogs, and is used on poison-tipped arrows by South American tribes. Copyright 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 10 -3 Klein, Organic Chemistry 1e 10.1 Alkyne Uses • An example of a synthetic alkyne is ethynylestradiol. • Ethynylestradiol is the active ingredient in many birth control pills. • The presence of the triple bond increases the potency of the drug compared to the natural analog. • How do you think a C≡C triple bond affects the molecule’s geometry? Its rigidity? Its intermolecular attractions? Copyright 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 10 -4 Klein, Organic Chemistry 1e 10.2 Alkyne Nomenclature • Alkynes are named using the same procedure we used in Chapter 4 to name alkanes with minor modifications: 1. Identify the parent chain, which should include the C≡C triple bond. 2. Identify and name the substituents.
