IUPAC NOMENCLATURE OF ALIPHATIC COMPOUNDS CONTAINING ONE

ALKANES There are two types of alkanes: (i) Straight chain alkanes(unbranched alkanes): If all the atoms are connected in series one after the other and nowhere there is any branching, we call it a straight chain alkane. Note that you may write such an alkane in a twisted way, but it remains as a straight chain. See these examples.

C CC CC CC CCCCCC CC CC C In all the above cases the carbon atoms are connected in straight chain although in the second and third cases the carbon skeletons have been written in a twisted manner. There is no branching in any of them. If you attach the required number of hydrogen atoms, each structure is same and it is hexane. So the alkanes- methane, ethane, propane, butane, pentane, hexane, heptane etc. that we learnt in Chapter-I belong to the category of straight chain alkanes and these are their IUPAC names. But never think that their structures are really linear. Each carbon atom is tetrahedral in geometry i.e the the bond angles are 1090 28'. So the shape of alkanes is 3-dimensional. (ii) Branched alkane : If larger number of carbon atoms connected in series make the main or principal carbon chain and fewer number of carbon atoms are attached to the principal chain at different positions forming branches, we call it a branched alkane. See these examples. 5 1 C 1 2 3 4 56 4 3 2 1 C 2 3 4 CCCCCC CCCC C CC C C C C In the first example, there is a branch of one carbon atom attached to the 2nd carbon atom(from LHS) of the main chain. In the second example, there is a branch of one carbon atom attached to the 2nd carbon atom counted from the RHS of the main chain. In the third case, there are two branches, one at the 2nd carbon atom from LHS and the other at 2nd carbon atom from RHS(4th carbon atom from LHS) of the main chain containing 5 carbon atoms. NAMING OF BRANCHED ALKANES: (i) For branched alkane, first the longest continuous carbon chain is selected. For doing so,

one has to start from one terminal(end) carbon(CH3) and go upto the other terminal carbon(CH3) and see in which direction, the number of carbon atoms is maximum. (ii) Number the carbon atoms with numerals 1,2,3..... This is the principal carbon chain of alkane. For example, if the principal chain contains 5 carbon atoms, it is pentane, and if it contains 4 carbon atoms it is butane and so on. Nomenclature of Organic Compounds

(iii) The other carbon atoms which do not belong to the main chain form the branches or . Mark these substituents as shown below.

1 2 3 4 5 6 CH3 CH CH2 CH2 CH2 CH3 2-methylhexane(correct)

CH3 Here the longest chain contains six carbon atoms. Hence the parent alkane is hexane. But there is a branch at carbon number 2. The name of the is methyl. You

already know the names of different groups like methyl(CH3-), ethyl(CH3CH2-),

propyl(CH3CH2CH2-) and so on. (iv) The position(number) of carbon atom to which the branch(sustituent) is attached is called the locant of the substituent. Here the locant of is 2 as it is attached to carbon number 2 of the main chain. (v) First the name(s) of the branch is(are) written. Branch name is preceded by its locant followed by '-"(hyphen) mark e.g 2-methyl in this case. Then the name of the alkane is written. There should be no space between the branch name and the name of parent alkane. Hence the name of the above alkane is : 2-methylhexane ( not 2-methyl hexane)

PROCEDURE FOR GENERAL NOMENCLATURE branches + Word root +suffix In alkane, suffix is -ane. So, for alkanes the name becomes branches + alkane BRANCHES : Locants are prefixed to each branch(substituent) using hyphens (-) to separate the locants from the names of branches, e.g 2-methyl, 4-ethyl etc. If there are two or more of the same branch(say methyl or ethyl or any other) in a given molecule, then the multiplying prefixes di, tri, tetra, penta, hexa, hepta etc., are used together with a set of locants, one for each of the branches with the locants separated by commas. In such case the hyphen(-) is given after the last locant i.e before the name of the branch.For example, if there are three methyl groups out of which two are attached to C-2 and the third is attached to C-3, then the branches are to be written as 2,2,3-trimethyl(neither 2,3-trimethyl nor 2,2-dimethyl-3-methyl). Note that each and every branch must have a locant, even if it requires repeating the identifier as in 2,2-dimethyl. (vi) Alphabetical ordering: The substituents(branches) are arranged according to alphabetical order of the first letters of the branches. The terms di-, tri- tetra- etc., used as multiplying prefixes of the substituents are not considered for alphabetical ordering. Wrong order : 2,3, 3-trimethyl-3,4-diethyl-4-butyl-5-propyl Correct order : 4-butyl-3,4-diethyl-2,3,3-trimethyl-5-propyl Note that the prefixes di, tri are not considered for alphabetical ordering of branches. Full name: 4-butyl-3,4-diethyl-2,3,3-trimethyl-5-propyldodecane (correct) 4-butyl-3,4-diethyl-2,3,3-trimethyl-5-proply dodecane (incorrect) Concepts in Chemistry

There should not be any space between the name of the last branch and the name of the parent alkane. In the second case, there is a space between the last branch propyl and the parent alkane dodecane. To be specific, there should not be any vacant space anywhere in the name. (vii) LOWEST LOCANT RULE OR LOWEST SET OF LOCANTS RULE: Lowest Locant Rule: When there is only one branch this rule is followed. According to this rule, that direction of numbering the principal carbon chain is correct which gives the lowest locant to the substituent(branch) and the corresponding name is the correct name. This is achieved by writing names two times, first with one direction of numbering and next with reverse direction of numbering. The numbering of carbon atoms is reversed with respect to first numbering in the same chain. The last carbon becomes the first carbon while the first carbon becomes the last carbon in the new numbering system. Look at this example. 1 2 345 6 5-methylhexane(wrong) CH3 CH CH2 CH2 CH2 CH3 6 5 432 1 2-methylhexane(correct) CH3

According to numbering from left to right the methyl(CH3) group is attached to carbon

No. 2. So its locant is 2. According to the numbering from right to left methyl(CH3) group is attached to carbon No. 5. So, its locant is 5. According to this rule, the name having lowest locant of the branch is the correct name. Hence the correct name of the alkane is 2-methylhexane, (not 5-methyhexane). Note that the direction of numbering the carbon chain can be done by mere inspection without reversing the numbering system. IMPORTANT : The direction in which a substituent is ecountered first is the correct direction of numbering. Lowest set of locants rule : When there are more than one branches, lowest set of locants rule is followed. The numbering of the main chain is done in the direction which gives the lowest locant to the first branching point. In other words, the direction in which a branch is met earlier is the correct direction of numbering. That gives the lowest set of locants. See this example. Example

CH3 2 4 CH 1 3 CH2 CH2 5 CH H3C CH CH 3 6 8 5-ethyl-2,3-dimethyloctane(correct) CH3 CH2 7 CH3 CH2 The longest chain contains eight carbon atoms. So the parent alkane is octane. Let us now look to the branches. There are three brances, two methyl(CH3) attached to C-2, C-3, and one ethyl(-CH2-CH3) attached to C-5. So, the name is 5-ethyl-2,3-dimethyloctane (correct) Nomenclature of Organic Compounds

Reverse the number system:

CH3 7 5 CH 8 6 CH2 CH2 4 CH H3C CH CH 3 3 1 4-ethyl-6,7-dimethyloctane(wrong) CH3 CH2 2 CH3 CH2 According to this numbering, the name is 4-ethyl-6,7-dimethyloctane. Lowest Set of Locants Rule: Write the locants of all the substituents in each name in increasing numerical value and make a set. In the first name, the set is : 2, 3, 5 (lowest set of locants) In the second name, the set is : 4, 6, 7 When comparison is made between the two sets from the beginning, locant by locant, the set giving the lower locant at the first point of difference is called the lowest set of locants irrespective of the locants appearing at later positions. This lowest set gives the correct name. So, the correct name is 5-ethyl-2,3-dimethyloctane. Example :

CH3

2 4 6 8 10

1 CH2 3 CH 5 CH2 7 CH2 9 CH3 9 7 5 3 1 H3C CH CH2 CH2 CH 10 8 6 4 2

CH3 CH3 The longest chain contains ten carbon atoms, hence the parent alkane is decane. Two names that can be proposed with respect to both forward and backward numbering systems are 3,4,9-trimethyldecane (wrong) 2,7,8-trimethyldecane (correct) When we compare the two sets i.e (3,4,9) and (2,7,8) we find the difference at the first point. In first set, the first number is 3 and in the second set, it is 2. This suggests that the second set is the lower set of locants and thus the correct name is 2,7,8-trimethyldecane. Note that after meeting the first point of difference, the other locants are not compared. The comparison is stopped from there. Note also, that if we take the sum of the locants in the two sets, we get, sum of locants in the first set = 3 + 4 + 9 = 16 sum of locants in the second set = 2 + 7 + 8 = 17 Although the sum of the locants in the second set is greater than the first, the second set gives the correct name. Hence lower sum of locants is never considered for getting the correct name. It is the lowest set of locants which is considered for the purpose. Concepts in Chemistry

TRICK : In order to know which direction of numbering the longest chain would give the lower set of locants, you are advised to do it by mere inspection. This would save a lot of time. The direction which gives lower locant(number) to the first substituent gives the correct direction. That direction of numbering will certainly give the lowest set of locants and hence correct name irrespective of the locants of the other substituents present in the chain. If the first substituent from both the directions have the same locant, then the next substituent is compared, if that tallies then the next is compared until a point of difference is met. The one giving lower locant at the first point of difference gives the correct direction of numbering. (viii) Alphabetical priority when sets of locant are same: In case, the sets of locants of the substituents are same in both the directions of numbering of longest carbon chain, then an alphabetically senior group gets the lower locant.

CH3 3-methyl-4-ethylhexane (wrong) 5 CH2 1 3 3-ethyl-4-methylhexan (correct) CH2 4 CH 2 CH3 2' 6' 6 CH 4' H3C 3' CH2 1' 5' CH3

In both the directions, the sets are same(3,4). In the direction from right to left the alphabetically senior group ethyl gets lower locant (3), hence the correct name is 3-ethyl-4-methylhexane.

(ix) Branching Rule: If longest chain is available in more than one direction, then the one to which maximum number of branches are linked is selected as the correct longest chain.

CH3 CH3 2 4 6 2 4 CH 7 CH 1 3 CH2 CH2 1 3 CH2 CH2 5 CH 5 CH H3C CH CH 3 H3C CH CH 3 6 CH3 (wrong) CH3 (correct) CH CH 7 CH3 CH3 CH3 CH3

Here we find that the longest chain of seven carbon atoms are found in two directions. But which direction we shall follow? In the first case, we find the chain has three branches , one at C-2, the second at C-3 and the third at C-5. Note that the big group attached to C-5 is called

H3C propan-2-yl CH group(to be discussed later). The whole group is considered to be one H3C branch as it is connected with the main chain with a single bond. In the second case, the chain is connected with four branches at C-2, C-3, C-5 and C-6. According to branching rule the chain which is connected with more number of branches is the correct longest chain. So the second one is correct. The name is 5-ethyl-2,3,6-trimethylheptane. Nomenclature of Organic Compounds

Example

8' 7' CH3 H C CH CH 8 3 2' 3 2 4 6 CH3 7 CH CH 5 CH 1' 3 CH H 3 C CH CH 2 C CH3 CH3 H C 3 1 CH3 CH3

In this case, longest carbon chain containing 8 carbon atoms are available in more than one direction. Out of those, the one numbered as 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 is the correct longest chain as it is attached with maximum number of branches(seven). All other longest chains namely 1',2',3,4,5,6,7,8 or 1,2,3,4,5,6,7',8' or 1',2',3,4,5,6,7',8' are attached with less number of branches. Note that in each chain, the terminal(first and last) carbon atom could have been the carbon atom of the other methyl(CH3-) group. Terminal CH3- groups are equivalent and you can select any one for the numbering purpose. LINE STRUCTURE FOR BRANCHED ALKANES : The branched alkanes can be represented by line structures like unbranched alkanes. Each terminal point, each bent point and each crossing point in the line structure carries one carbon atom and each carbon atom is linked with required number of hydrogen atoms. Before naming convert first the line structure into actual structure by writing carbon atoms at each terminal, bent and crossing points and attaching required number of H atoms to each carbon.

1 H3C 2 CH3 CH CH3 7 3 5 CH3 CH 4 CH 6 CH2 8 = CH2 CH CH CH3 CH2 CH3 CH3 The name of the above compound is 3,4-diethyl-2,5,6-trimethyloctane. The longest chain selected is correct as it has maximum number of branches(branching rule). The direction of numbering chosen is correct because a branch(methyl) is encountered earlier in that direction at C-2(lower set of locants rule). SAQ II. 1: Give the IUPAC names of the following:

NAMING COMPLEX SUBSTITUENTS(BRANCHED BRANCHES OR SUBSTITUTUED SUBSTITUENTS) : (Substitutive Names of Complex Branches)

Simple branches : These are derived from straight chain(unbranched) alkanes by removing one H atom from a terminal carbon. In such case 'ane' is replaced by 1-yl, eg. propyl, butyl, pentyl. In these case the locant of yl is 1- and is dropped. The locant of carbon which bears the unsatisfied valency of the alkyl group is the locant of yl. Always the locant of -yl should be minimum.

The alkyl branches such as methyl(CH3-), ethyl(CH3-CH2-), propyl(CH3-CH2-CH2-), butyl, pentyl etc. are called simple branches as the locant of -yl is 1 and moreover there is no sub-branches. The numbering in a branch starts from one terminal and continues till other terminal, just like it is done in the principal carbon chain such that the locant of 'yl' becomes lower.. Complex branches: Under the following conditions an alkyl branch is called complex. (a) The locant of 'yl' is not 1. In such case, the last letter 'e' of the suffix 'ane' is replaced by 'yl' with the locant of 'yl' coming before it. For example : propan-2-yl, butan-2-yl(not prop-2-yl or but-2-yl). Note that such a branch may or may not have sub-branches. (b) Even though the locant of 'yl' is 1, if the alkyl branch is futher branched i.e the branch has one or more sub-branches. In such case, the sub-branches is written first followed by the main branch. For example : 2-methylpropyl. In both the cases, the branch with its internal locants(both locants of sub-brances and locant of 'yl') are kept inside a parenthesis. The locant of the complex branch attached to the principal carbon chain is written before the parenthesis carrying the complex branch. For example : 2-(propan-2-yl); 3-(2-methylpropyl) etc. Note that the locant inside the parenthesis belongs to the branch and the locant outside the parenthesis belongs to the principal carbon chain.

In the old IUPAC rule, the carbon directly bonded to the principal carbon chain was numbered 1 and from that the longest chain of the branch was determined. Propan-2-yl was named as 1-methylethyl while butan- 2-yl was named as 1-methylpropyl and 2-methylpropan-2-yl was named as 1,1-dimethylethyl etc.. Some literature also give these olden names for complex branches. But these are not preferred IUPAC names(PIN) now. Moreover IUPAC was also using the names isopropyl for propan-2-yl, sec-butyl for butan-2-yl and isobutyl for 2-methylpropyl and tert-butyl for 2-methylpropn-2-yl as offical names for these branches. However these names are also not now in use)

Alphabetical ordering of the complex branch: * The first letter of a complex branch is considered for alphabetical priority. This will include the multiplying prefixes such as di-, tri- etc. For example, the complex branch (2,2-dimethylbutyl), the first word 'd' is considered. But the same is not considered for simple branches such as dimethyl, triethyl etc. * If the first word of a complex branch is same as a simple branch, eg. 2- methylpropyl(complex branch) and methyl(simple branch) then the simple branch is written first and the complex branch next. In other words when two groups have same initial words(or letters), the longer branch is alphabetically junior and hence placed later. Example: 6-methyl-2-(2-methylpropyl)....(correct); 2-(2-methylpropyl)-6-methyl...(wrong). Concepts in Chemistry

3' 1' 2 4 2' 10 12 3 5 1 6 7 8 2' 9 1' 3' 11

6-methyl-8-(2-methylpropan-2-yl)-5-(2-methylpropyl)dodecane Note that the correct direction of numbering is from left to right as the first branch appears as it follows lower set of locants rule (5,6,8). The reverse direction would have given the set (5,7,8). Note that the prime symbols(1', 2' 3' etc) given in carbon atoms of branches are removed while the names are put inside parentheses. The locants inside parenthesis belongs to the numbering of of branch while the locants outside the parenthesis belongs to the principal carbon chain.

* When two longest chains having same lengths and same number branches compete, the longest chain which gives the lower set of locants for the branches is the correct longest chain. Look at this example.

H3C

2 4 6 8

H3C 3 1 5 7 CH3 9 CH3 8 6 H3C 7 CH3 9 2,6-dimethyl-5-(2-methylbutyl)nonane In this case the longest chain of nonane can be traced in two directions from C-5 ; one towards the right and other below. Both the longest chains have same number of branches( two methyl groups). In such a case, the longest chain which gives the lowest set of locants for the branches is the correct one. In the chain which proceeds towards the downward direction from C-5 gives the set of locants 2,5,6 and the chain which proceeds towards the right of C-5 gives the set of locants 2,5,7. The former being the lowest set(obtained at the third point of difference) is the correct longest chain. Hence the correct name is 2,6-dimethyl-5-(2-methylbutyl)nonane. Since (2-methylbutyl) is a complex branch it has been placed after 2,6-dimethyl as the latter are simple branches. * When there are more than one identical complex branches having the multiplying prefix di, tri, tetra etc. within their substitutive names, the multiplying prefixes di, tri etc. are not used prefixed to such branches. Instead, the multiplying prefixes bis, tris, tetrakis etc. are used. See this example. 2,3-bis(propan-2-yl) or 3,4-bis(2,2-dimethylpropyl) etc. Nomenclature of Organic Compounds

1' 2' 2 4 10 12 3 5 1 6 7 8 9 11 2' 1'

3' 6,6-bis(2,2-dimethylpropyl)dodecane Since the term di lies within the parenthesis in the complex branch, the multiplying prefix bis is used, not di again. Bis, tris.... prefix is also used for all complex braches defined earlier whether or not they carry di-, tri- ..... in their names. However in case of complex branch not having di-, tri- inside it like propan-2-yl, the multiplying prefix di-tri can also be used in place of bis- tris- etc as a matter of choice. However it is not PIN. * FIRST LETTER CAPITALIZATION: Nowhere IUPAC has recommended to make the first letter of the name capital e. g 2,3-Dimethylbutane, 2,3,3-Trimethylpentanoic acid etc. This is a convention followed in some countries such as Germany. That is why some authors give stress on first letter capitalization as a matter of IUPAC rule. But to this author, it is not a rule, but a matter of convention. COMMON(TRIVIAL) NAMES FOR SOME COMPLEX BRANCHES: The following complex alkyl branches have their common or traditional names. In some literature you may might find their usage in IUPAC system. So you must know them now.However these are not preferred IUPAC names.

CH3 CH CH3 CH CH2 CH3 CH CH2 CH2 CH3 CH CH3 3 isopropyl isobutyl isopentyl or isoamyl

CH3 CH3 CH3

CH3 C CH3 C CH2 CH3 CH2 C

CH3 CH3 CH3 tert-butyl neopentyl tert-pentyl Note that all the carbon atoms present in a complex branch are considered for naming with the prefix iso, sec, tert., neo. The carbon atoms are not numbered in these cases like those in the other systems explained before. We shall discuss more about these groups later in Chapter-IV.

The prefixes iso, neo are not followed by a hyphen while sec- and tert- are followed by Concepts in Chemistry hyphen(-) symbol. In other words isobutyl is one word but tert-butyl are two words separated by –. For alphabetical ordering therefore iso and neo were considered while tert- and sec- were not. However these names are not used in present time. Example:

CH CH3 3 CH 4-isopropyl-3-methylheptane 2 4 6 3 5 1 7

The PIN of this compound is 3-methyl-4-(propan-2-yl)heptane.

(Rule for naming compound (viii): When two or more longest chains containing same number of branches and same set of locants for the branches compete with each other, IUPAC recommends that the longest chain which contains greatest number of carbon atoms in the branches is correct. So the chain bearing gives the correct longest chain. In all other chains the branches are methyl which is shorter than ethyl).

ALKENES: Alk is the root word and ene is the suffix for . (i) ene of alkene has a locant(number) of its own. The first carbon atom of the (C=C) gives the locant(number) of the ene.In otherwords this locant identifies the lowest numbered carbon of the two carbon atoms of C=C with respect to the terminal carbon numbered as C-1 . This locant is written between root word and suffix. See this example.

1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 H2CCHCH2 CH3 (but-1-ene) CH3 CH CH CH3 (but-2-ene) but- is the root word and -ene is suffix. In the first example, the double bond follows C-1, so the locant of ene is 1 which is written just before ene. In the second example, the double bond follows C-2 and so the locant of ene is 2. Placing the locant before root word like 1-butene, 2-butene is not the preferred procedure adopted by IUPAC now although such names can be accepted as IUPAC names. The locant should appear before the suffix, not before root word. (ii) The longest carbon chain is found first in such a direction that the double bond remains as a part of the chain . The structure may have a longer chain than this when C=C is excluded, but that does not give the correct longest chain.(This is according to old IUPAC rule. Refer the new rules given later) (iii) The direction of the numbering of the longest chain should be such that the locant of the ene should be minimum. The numbering of the chain is done from one terminal carbon to the other terminal carbon in the direction in which the double bond appears first. The proper direction of numbering the longest chain can be determined by mere inspection. Look at this example.

Note that in the first name, the locant of ene is 1(pent-1-ene) while in the second, it is 4 (pent-4-ene). According to rule, the locant of ene should be minimum irrespective of the locants of the sustituents. You also noted that the longest carbon chain would have been hexane if we would not have taken the double bond in the main chain. But according to old rule, the double bond should be a part of the main chain. In otherwords, we have to trace out the longest chain while taking the double bond in it. (This is true according to old rule. The new rules are however different. This will be discussed later). Note also that instead of trying with two numbering directions(forward and backward), we can choose the correct direction by mere inspection. The direction in which the double bond appears first gives the correct direction. (iv) If the locant of ene becomes same on both the directions of numbering, then lowest locant or lowest set of locants rule for the substituents is applied to find the correct name. Look at this exampe. Nomenclature of Organic Compounds

CH3 2 4 6 (2-methylhex-3-ene) CH CH CH3 Example 1 3 5 1 5 3 (not 5-methylhex-3-ene H3C CH CH2 6 4 2 In the above case, the locant of ene is 3 on either side(hex-3-ene) and in this case the correct name will be decided by the lower locant(or lowest set of locants)of the substituent(s). In this case 2-methyl is lower than 5-methyl, hence 2-methylhex-3-ene is correct. SAQ II.6: Write the IUPAC names of the following .

ALKYNES The rules for naming are same as for alkenes excepting that we shall write the suffix yne in place of ene. Yne has its locant and that should be minimum irrespective of the locants of the substituents. In case the locant of yne becomes same on both the directions, then the lower locant or lowest set of the locants for the substituent(s) decides the correct name. Look to the following examples.

ALKENYL AND ALKYNYL GROUPS Alkenyl group: When one H atom is removed from an alkene, an alkenyl group resuts. The last letter e of alkene is replaced by -yl to form this group. This is similar to the formation of alkyl group by the removal of ane H atom from alkane. Alkenyl group is a univalent like alkyl group. The naming is done in the same way as complex alkyl group discussed before.. There are two positon identifiers; one for en and other for yl. The position identifier of yl should be the lowest while that of en is considered after the locant of -yl.. The locant of the first carbon atom of the double bond is the position identifier of the en. Note that the last letter e of ene is dropped because it is facing yl as y is taken to be a vowel for nomenclature. The position identifiers are written before en and yl respectively. When the position identifer of yl is 1 , it is often dropped. In case the alkenyl group is itself branched, then the branch position identifers(locants) appear before alkenyl. For ethenyl(vinyl) postion identifier of ene(i.e 1) is not written. See these examples.

Alkynyl group: When one H atom is removed from , an alknynyl group results. Like alkyl and alkenyl groups, the last letter e of alkyne is replaced by -yl to name this group. The naming is done in the same manner as we have done for alkenyl group. It is also a univalent group.

(eg. R-CH=, R- CH=CH-CH=, R-C≡C-CH=). This becomes a bivalent group. In all other groups, the name of the bivalent group is obtained by suffixing 'idene' to the alkyl(or alkanyl), alkenyl or alkynyl group. alkyl - alkylidene alkenyl - alkenylidene alkynyl - alkynylidene

In January 2002, IUPAC has provisionally recommended the following new rules for naming alkenes and alkynes. These new rules are given below. The students are advised to use these rules with utmost caution depending upon the requirement since this rule has not yet been introduced in many of text and reference books. (i) The longest continuous carbon chain is found for the compound irrespective of whether it contains the C=C(double bond) or CC(triple bond) or not. In otherwords, the double or triple bond(s) may be excluded to determine the longest chain if situation arises. In such a case, when the double or triple bonds are excluded, the parent compound no longer becomes an alkene or alkyne, instead it becomes an alkane. The branch containing the multiple bond becomes one from alkenyl, alkynyl, alkylidene, alkenylidene or alkynylidene group which is used as prefix. (ii) If two longest chains having same length, one including C-C multiple bond and the other excluding it compete, then the chain including the multiple bonds is considered as the correct longest chain(same as old rule). (iii) In case the longest chain does not include the multiple bond, then the lowest set of locants rule for branches is followed to choose the direction of numbering the longest chain. The branch containing the double or triple bond does not get any preference as functional group. See these examples. 8 6 4 2 CH3 7 5 3 H3C CH3 9 1 2 4 6 8

3 5 7 1 H3C CH3 1 9 2 CH CH2 3 2-methyl-7-methylidenenonane(new name) 5-(prop-2-ynyl)nonane( new name) 2-ethyl-7-methyloct-1-ene(old name) 4-butyloct-1-yne(old name) In the first example, the longest carbon chain is C-9, so the parent compound is nonane. The carbon chain carrying the C=C would have been C-8. But the new rule takes C-9 as the longest chain. The bivalent branch at C-7 position is methylidene. Note that this group does not get any priority over the other methyl group. The lowest set of locant rule gives the locant 2 to

CH3 group and 7 to =CH2 group.(Note that methylidene was previously called ) In the second example, the longest carbon chain is C-9. The triple bond is excluded from the main chain. The branch containing the triple bond becomes an alkynyl group(prop-2- ynyl) attached to C-5 of the parent compound nonane.

SAQ 16: Write the names of names of the following alkenes and alkynes on the basis of the new rules. Compare the names with those obtained by using old rules.

HALOALKANE(R-X): (i) X can be F, Cl, Br or I and R can be any alkyl group or carbon chain. The rules for naming a haloalkane is analogous to the rules applied to alkanes. Look to this example.

4 3 2 1 H3CCH2 CH CH3 1 2 3 4 (2-bromobutane not 3-bromobutane) Br Besides halogen, if there are other alkyl substituents, then the lower set of the locants rule is applied. Look to this example.

(Note that halo group(X) does not have a priority like 'ene' and 'yne' groups. Halo group is merely a branch like an alkyl branch while 'ene' and 'yne' are functional groups) (ii) If the longest carbon chain of a haloalkane does not directly bond with halo(X) group, then the halogen becomes a part of a complex branch. The rules for naming a complex branch will be followed for that. See this example.

H3C CH3 1 4-(2-bromoethyl)-3-ethyl-2,5,6-trimethylheptane Here the longest chain is C-7. So the part containing Br becomes a complex substitutent named as 2'-bromoethyl which is attached to C-4 of the longest chain. If the chain directly bonded to Br would have been considered the number of carbon atoms in the longest chain bearing Br would have been 6. Since this is not the true longest chain, it is not considered. Note that in the above example the sets of locants on both the opposite directions of the longest chain are same. The direction of numbering has been decided on the basis of alphabetical priority of ethyl group over methyl group at C-3 positions on the two opposite directions. Nomenclature of Organic Compounds

(ii) The alcohol group(-OH) has a locant. The carbon number to which the OH group is attached is the locant of -ol. The locant is written before the suffix -ol of the alkanol. For example: pentan-2-ol, butan-1-ol etc. (not 2-pentanol, 1-butanol) (iii) The direction of the longest chain should be such that the locant of the ol is minimum. (iv) In case the locants of the ol become same on both the sides, then lower locant or lowest set of the locants for the substituents gives the correct name.

THIOALCOHOLS R-SH is called thioalcohol; the O atom in alcohol(R-OH) is replaced by S atom to make thioalcohol. IUPAC NAME: alkanethiol The letter e of alkane is not dropped because it is facing a consonant(t) in the suffix . Since -SH(thiol) is a functional group, all the rules applicable to alcohols(R-OH) are applicable for thioalcohols(R-SH).

When a strong metal like Na or K remains bonded with the above mentioned group, a salt results. For example, R-O- Na+ and R-S- K+ are ionic compounds and are shown with + and - signs. These salts are obtained by treating the metal Na or K with the corresponding alcohol or thioalcohol. IUPAC NAMING: Salt of alcohol: RONa - sodium alkan-x-olate (where x is the locant of ol) Salt of thioalcohol: RSNa - sodium alkane-x-thiolate(where x is the locant of thiol) -ate is suffixed to -ol or -thiol to make the suffixes -olate or -thiolate respectively.

(iii) In case the locant of the one becomes same on both the sides, then the lower locant or lowest set of locants for the substituents will decide the correct name.

AMINES The naming is analogous to alcohols. The carbon atom bearing the N atom gives the locant of . The direction of numbering the longest chain should be such that the amine gets the lowest locant. If the amine gets the same locant on both the directions, then lowest set of locants rule for the substituents holds good. If the set of locants also become same, then alphabetical priority is considered for numbering. Note that as for an alcohol, the longest carbon chain should bear N atom of an amine. 10 amine(prim. amine)

Note that in this case the locant of amine is 1 and that should be written before the suffix amine. Concepts in Chemistry Caution: If the locant of the amine is not written then the naming becomes incorrect.

NH2

Caution: Note that the C-2 to which NH2 group is attached is not a terminal carbon. Hence it cannot be numbered as C-1. 20 amine(sec-amine) In 20 amine, N is connected with two alkyl groups(same or different). The alkyl group containing longer continuous carbon chain from terminal to terminal becomes the parent alkanamine and the other becomes an alkyl substituent to the N atom( called N-alkyl). If both the alkyl groups have identical length , then the one which gives lower locant to amine function gives the correct longest chain. If the locant of amine is same on both alkyl parts, then the alkyl part which is more branched gives the correct longest chain. If the number of branches are also same alongwith locant of the amine, then lower set of locants for the substituents decides the correct name parent amine.

2,5-dimethyl-N-(propan-2-yl)heptan-4-amine N-(3-methylbutan-2-yl)butan-1-amine In the first example, the alkyl group having 7 carbon atoms in the main chain becomes the parent alkanamine. Again the locant of amine is same(4) from both the sides. So the lower set of locants is considered to choose the correct direction of numbering. Note that the alkyl group (R-) attached to nitrogen atom has N as its locant. In the second example, both the alkyl groups attached to NH function contains 4 carbon atoms in the longest chain. In that case, the chain giving lower locant to amine(1-amine) is taken as the parent alkanamine. Note that the other alkyl group is more branched, but it is not taken for the parent alkanamine as it gives higher locant (2) to amine. Note that the locant N can also be used along with other numeric locants if identical branches appear in carbon atoms as well as in N atom of amine group.

CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2O-(pentyloxy), follwed by hexyloxy and so on. In other words, when the locant of 'yl' is 1, then 'yl' is replaced by 'oxy' uptill butyl, thereafter it is not replaced. However the locant 1 is dropped in higher alkyloxy names. (ii) When the locant of -yl- is not 1, in that case 'oxy' is suffixed to 'alkanyl'. For example

CH3-CH(CH3)-O- is propan-2-yloxy. Similarly butan-2-yloxy and so on. (iii) The group RO- has no priority as a functional group. It is analogous to any alkyl group(R) while following the lowest set of locants rule for choosing the correct direction of numbering. In otherwords, locant of alkoxy may not necessarily be minimum as it competes with other alkyl groups for getting its locant. (iv) Out of the two alkyl groups attached to O atom, the one having longer continuous carbon chain from terminal to terminal gives the name of the parent alkane. The other alkyl group coupled with O atom forms the alkoxy/alkyloxy/alkanyloxy group. If both the alkyl groups contain the continuous carbon chain of same length, then the chain which is more branched gives the name of the parent alkane. If the alkyl groups have same length and same number of branches then the chain giving a lowest set of locants for the substituents gives the parent name. Note that does not get any special preference in this like amines. Examples:

1 3 5 2 4 6 5 O 4 O 1 3 CH2 2 CH3 4-ethoxy-2,3-dimethylhexane 2,4-dimethyl-3-(propan-2-yl)-1-(propan-2-yloxy)pentane Nomenclature of Organic Compounds

In the first example, methyl group gets lower locant(2) than ethoxy(4). The other direction of numbering would have given the locant 3 to the first branch(ethoxy). So you find that alkoxy group has no priority over alkyl group in the assignment of locants. In the second example, the locant of alkoxy is 1 and the group gets the priority not because it is a functional group but because it agrees with lowest set of locants rule. Examples:

1' 1 1 3 2' 1' 2 4' 4 2 O 2' 3' 5 3 3' O 2-(2-methylbutan-2-yloxy)pentane(correct) 2-methyl-1-(2-methylpropan-2-yloxy)propane(correc 2-methyl-2-(pentan-2-yloxy)butane(wrong) 2-methyl-2-(2-methylpropoxy)propane(wrong) In the first example, the alkyl group having 5 carbon atoms in the longest chain gives the parent alkane. Hence the other alkyl group(2-methylbutan-2-yloxy) forms its corresponding alkanyloxy group. In the second example, the chain lengths and number of branches are same in both the alkyl groups, so that the alkyl group giving the lowest set of locants(1,2) is chosen as the parent alkane. (v) The longest carbon chain to be found out without looking whether alkoxy group is directly linking with it or not. If the longest carbon chain does not directly link with the alkoxy group then it is no longer an alkoxy group rather it becomes a alkoxyalkyl substituent. See this example.

CH3 H3C

CH3 O 4-(ethoxymethyl)-2-methyloctane

H3C In this case the longest chain(8) does not bear O atom. In stead it is attached to a methyl branch which is attached to C-4 of the longest chain. Since one H atom of methyl is substituted by ethoxy group, the whole complex group is called ethoxymethyl.Since it is a complex branch it is placed within parenthesis. Since there is no internal locant in it, the parenthesis may be deleted . SAQ II. 37: Write the IUPAC names for the following line structures.

THIOETHERS: When O atom of (R-O-R') is replaced by S, we get thioether(R-S-R') i IUPAC NAME: alkylsulfanylalkane (alkylthioalkane) The alkyl group containing less number of carbon atoms is included with S to make alkylsulfanyl group(like alkoxy group in ether). The alkyl group containing greater number of carbon atoms becomes the parent alkane. Other rules are same as for ethers.

CYCLOALKANES Hydrocarbons having cyclic or ring structures are called cyclalkanes and have the general formula CnH2n same as the formula for alkenes. The alkane is prefixed with cyclo to give the name of cycloalkane e.g cyclopropane, cyclobutane, cyclopentane and so on. They are also called alicyclic compounds.

CYCLOALKYL GROUPS: When one H atom is removed from a cycloalkane, a cycloalkyl group results. Note that in each of the above line structures there is one carbon atom at each corner and each carbon atom is attached with 2 H atoms. In line structure, the cycloalkyl group results by putting a dash(-) at any corner in the line structure of cycloalkane.

cyclopropyl cyclobutyl cyclopentyl cyclohexyl cycloheptyl Concepts in Chemistry

Note that the carbon atom bearing the unfulfilled valency(dash) is bearing only one H atom while other carbon atoms are bearing 2 H atoms each. Note that all the carbon atoms are equivalent and a dash can be put anywhere. The formula of cycloalkyl group is CnH2n-1- .

Phenyl and benzyl groups: A six membered ring containing alternate single and double bonds is called benzene which has a formula C6H6. Benzene and its derivatives are called aromatic compounds. The discussion on nomenclature of aromatic or other ring compounds will be made in chapter-III.

When one H atom is removed from any carbon atom of benzene, (C6H5-) results.

benzene phenyl group In benzene all the six carbon atoms present in the corners bear one H atom each. But in phenyl group the carbon atom attached with the unfulfilled valency(dash) bears no H atom.

Phenyl group is shortly written as C6H5- or Ph- . When one CH2 unit is attached to phenyl, the group is called benzyl. The details on the naming of aromatic compounds will be dicussed in chapter-III. Naming of aliphatic functional compounds containng cyclic rings as branches: Examples:
