Chapter 7, Problem 12P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The name of the following molecule should be determined.

  Principles of Modern Chemistry, Chapter 7, Problem 12P , additional homework tip  1

Concept Introduction:

Compounds consist of carbon and hydrogen is known as hydrocarbons. Unsaturated hydrocarbon having double bond is known as alkene having general molecular formula CnH2n . Unsaturated hydrocarbon having triple bond is known as alkyne having general formula CnH2n2

Rules of naming alkenes are:

  1. First choose the longest continuous chain of carbon atoms having double bond known as parent chain.
  2. The numbering of parent chain should be done in a way that the double bond and substituents get the lowest number.
  3. The root name of the carbon chain is same as in case of alkanes, but “−ane” ending is replaced by “−ene”
  4. The appropriate name should be given to every alkyl group and denote its position on the parent chain with the number.
  5. The alkyl groups are written in alphabetical order.

(b)

  Principles of Modern Chemistry, Chapter 7, Problem 12P , additional homework tip  3

Concept Introduction:

Compounds consist of carbon and hydrogen is known as hydrocarbons. Saturated hydrocarbon is known as alkane having general molecular formula CnH2n+2 .

Rules of naming alkanes are:

  1. First choose the longest continuous chain of carbon atoms known as parent chain and determines the base name of alkane.
  2. The numbering of parent chain should be done in a way that the substituents get the lowest number.
  3. The appropriate name should be given to every alkyl group and denote its position on the parent chain with the number.
  4. The alkyl groups are written in alphabetical order.
