Organic Photochemistry & Pericyclic Reactions 167 Unit - I 1.1 Nomenclature Saturated and unsaturated monocyclic hydrocarbons are treated like their acyclic analogues but with the specifying prefix cyclo in front of the name. Monovalent substituent groups derived there from are again given the ending...yl, bivalent groups the ending...diyl (formerly...diyl) when different C atoms are involved and... ylidene or... 1,1-diyl when the free valences are at the same carbon atom. In numbering them, positions with free valences have precedence; only then are double and triple bonds together and thereafter double bonds given the lowest locants possible. The designations benzene, phenyl and ,m,p-phenylene are retained as trivial names. Monocyclic polyenes containing the maximum number of non-cumulative double bonds (for short called: mancude systems) and having the general composition CnHn or CnHn+1 (n > 6) can also be named as [n] annulenes. 1 Fused Polycyclic Hydrocarbons The nomenclature of these compounds in which at least two highly unsaturated rings are fused together through at least two common C-atoms is based on an extended series of trivial names. Systems comprising only benzene units and their substitution products are generally designated as arenes or, traditionally, aromatics. Fused hydrocarbon systems for which no trivial names are retained are systematically named as follows. That component that has the largest ring or/and that – if it is a trivial system according to Table-contains the largest number of rings is defined as parent (or base or primary or main) component. All other components are attached in the form of prefixes to the parent name by changing their ending... ene to ... eno. The following abbreviated prefix forms are retained. Acenaphtho from Naphtho From Acenaphthylene Naphthalene Antha from Anthracene Perylo from Perylene Benzo from Benzene Phenanthro from Phenanthrene With the exception of benzo, fusion prefixes for monocyclic systems are treated as exemplified for cyclopenta, cyclohepta etc. It should be noted here that for fused polycyclic systems the ending... ene always indicates the maximum number of non-cumulative double bonds, that is, a mancude system. 2 For the following compounds Chem. Abstr. Incomprehensibly uses the von Baeyer names bicyclo [4.2.0] octa-1,3,5,7-tetraene and 1H-bicyclo[4.1.0] hepta- 1.36-triene that totally disregard the aromatic character of these compounds. Bridged Polycyclic Hydrocarbons Von Baeyar System Saturated cyclic hydrocarbons containing two or more rings in which at least two rings have at least two common C-atoms are specified as bi-, tri-, tetra-, etc. –cycoalkanes. The total number of rings present evidently equals the number of C-C cleavages necessary to obtain an open chain compound. The names of such compounds are constructed stepwise in the following manner. a) the actual tridimensional structure is transformed into an appropriate planar representation, b) That ring is selected as main ring which includes as many skeletal atoms as possible, c) The largest possible carbon chain that connects two C-atoms of the main ring (consisting itself of tow branches) is defined as the main bridge. The corresponding points of connection are called bridge-heads, d) To assemble the full name the numbers of C atoms of both branches of the main ring, the main bridge and the secondary bridges, if present, are cited in descending order, separated by full stops, and placed in square brackets after the term cyclo. e) The numbering begins at the first bridgehead, tracing first the largest branch of the main ring up to the second bridgehead and then the next largest branch back to the
