![]() ![]() If there are more than 1 of the same substituent, we can use di-, tri-, tetra- to represent the quantity of that substituent.įinally we can combine everything together to name this organic compound: Substituents are arranged in alphabetical order. To name the compound, substituents will be placed first, followed by the carbon chain and finally the functional group. So acid carbon will be assigned as number one, the iodo group assigned to carbon-2 and the 2 methyl groups to carbon-3.Ĥ. Number the carbon chain giving priority to the functional group. For this compound the longest carbon chain is 4 carbon (butane)ģ. Find the longest carbon chain that contains the functional group. Identify the most important functional group which is the acid group in this case.Ģ. IUPAC Nomenclature for organic compounds can be determined using the following steps:ġ. If you have learnt how to name organic compounds already, test yourself to see if you can name them correctly before going through the video! In this video we want to name the following organic compounds using the IUPAC Nomenclature system.
