Question 25

steps for naming organic compounds

Answer 25

1- find the longest continuous carbon chain
2- determine if an ending needs to be added to the base name
this is necessary if a functional group is present on any of the carbon atoms
3- number the functional group
4- number any side groups
5- if there are 2 side chains name in alphabetical order

Question 26

how do you number the functional group

Answer 26

number the carbons above and below and use the smallest number that aligns with the functional group

Question 27

how do you name organic compounds when there are side groups

Answer 27

use the name of the side group then the name of the carbon chain
