Structure of Pentanone
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
- The international Union of pure and applied chemistry evolved a scheme for nomenclature of organic compounds in 1957.
- The names of straight chain hydrocarbons consist of a root word and primary suffix.
- The root word depends on the number of carbon atoms present on the parent chain.
- For example for one carbon atom it is meth, 2 carbon atom Eth, 3 carbon atoms prop and so on. The primary suffix in alkanes (single bond) is ane, in alkenes (double bond) is ene and in alkynes(triple bond) is yne.
☯ Prefix ☯
- Primary prefix: These prefixes are used to determine whether a chain is cyclic or acyclic.
- Secondary prefix: When a substituent group like halogens are attached to the parent chain prefix like fluoro for fluorine, chloro for chlorine etc are used.
- If a functional group is attached to a parent chain either prefix or suffix are used.
- For example for alcohols the prefix is hydroxy and suffix is ol
- For ketones the prefix is ox and suffix is one.
☯ Rules ☯
- Always the chain with the longer number of carbon atoms is identified as the parent chain.
- The functional group attached on the carbon chain is given the lowest number while numbering.
- Substituent groups are written in alphabetical order.
- If multiple alkyl groups are present, the first group according to alphabetical order receives the lowest number.
