Answer 1

Answer:

Nomenclature of Carboxylic Acids

• Select the longest carbon chain containing the

carboxyl group. The -e ending of the parent alkane

name is replaced by the suffix -oic acid.

• The carboxyl carbon is always numbered “1” but the

number is not included in the name.

• Name the substituents attached to the chain in the

usual way.

• Aromatic carboxylic acids (i.e., with a CO2H

directly connected to a benzene ring) are named

after the parent compound, benzoic acid.
