Question

What is the IUPAC name of

HOOC-CH2-CH2-O-CH2-CH2-O-CH2-CH2-O-CH2-CH2-COOH​

Answer 1

Explanation:

65.0 Introduction

This Chapter includes acids named substitutively by means of suffixes, that is, carboxylic acids,

sulfonic, sulfinic, and analogous selenium and tellurium acids. Their derivatives, such as esters, acyl

halides and anhydrides, are described. Salts are included in this Section although anions are formally

treated in Chapter 7. Carbon acids not named substitutively, i.e., carbonic acid, formic acid, cyanic

acid, oxalic acid, and the bi- and polynuclear carbon acids are also included here. Mononuclear and

polynuclear noncarbon (inorganic) acids used as parent structures for organic derivatives are

discussed in Section P-67.

The hydrogen atom of an acid group is not substitutable for the purposes of substitutive

nomenclature; replacement of acid hydrogen atoms by specific atoms or groups is called

‘functionalization’, as other classes are generated, for example esters. Substitution takes place when

other hydrogen atoms in the structure are exchanged with other atoms or groups, as illustrated by the

name ‘chloroacetic acid’.

P-65.1 Carboxylic acids and nitrogenous analogues

Carboxylic acids are ‘oxoacids’ having the structure R-C(=O)-OH, where R can be a hydrogen

atom. Nitrogenous analogues are carboxylic acids in which =O has been replaced by =NH,

=NNH2, =N-OH, or in which –OH has been replaced by –NH-OH.

Names of α-amino acids, as well as carboxylic acids derived from carbohydrates, are not covered

extensively in this Chapter. Traditional names are maintained, as recommended in specialized

publications (ref. 23), and listed in Chapter 10 devoted to preferred IUPAC names for natural

products.
