What is the IUPAC name of the compound
Answers
Answer:
IUPAC is international union of pure and applied chemistry
Answer:
In order to give compounds a name, certain rules must be followed. When naming organic compounds, the IUPAC (International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry) nomenclature (naming scheme) is used.
EXAPLANATION :
. We will first look at some of the steps that need to be followed when naming a compound, and then try to apply these rules to some specific examples.
- : RULES OF IUPAC NAMING :-
A good general rule to follow is to start at the end (the suffix) and work backwards (from right to left) in the name.
- Recognise the functional group in the compound. This will determine the suffix of the name .
- Find the longest continuous carbon chain that contains the functional group (it won't always be a straight chain) and count the number of carbon atoms in this chain. This number will determine the prefix (the beginning) of the compound's name
Number the carbons in the longest carbon chain (Important: If the molecule is not an alkane (i.e. has a functional group) you need to start numbering so that the functional group is on the carbon with the lowest possible number). Start with the carbon at the end closest to the functional group.
That is the basics of iupac NAMING. hope this will surely help you. if it helps..
than follow and mark as BRAINLIST.
