60
Q

HOW TO NUMBER ALICYCLIC COMPOUNDS

A

THE SUBSTITIUENT WHICH COMES FIRST IN THE ALPHABETICAL ORDER IS GIVEN THE LOWEST NUMBER AND IS ALSO ACCORDING TO LOWEST SUM RULE

61
Q

IF SIDE CHAIN CONTAINS FUNCTIONAL GROUP OR A MULTIPLE BOND THEN

A

ALICYCLIC RING BECOMES SUBSTITUENT IRRESPECTIVE OF SIZE OF THE RING

62
Q

IF MORE THAN 1 ALICYCLIC RING IS ATTACHED TO A SINGLE CHAIN

A

IT IS NAMED AS CYCLOALKYL ALKANE

A

COZ PRIORITY IS GIVEN TO THE CARBON IN THE DOUBLE BOND WHICH IS ATTACHED TO METHYL GROUP

65
Q

IF RING CONTAINS MULTIPLE BOND AND SIDE CHAIN CONTAINS FUNCTIONAL GROUP

A

THEN RING IS SUBSTITUENT

66
Q

IF RING AND CHAIN BOTH HAVE FUNCTIONAL GROUPS

A

IF SIDE CHAIN HAS HIGHER PRIORIT FUNCTIONAL GROUP THEN THE RING BECOMES THE SUBSTITUENT

VICE VERSA

67
Q

IF RING AND CHAIN BOTH HAVE SAME FUNCTIONAL GROUPS

A

IF THE NUMBER OF CARBONS IN RING IS EQUAL OR GREATER THAN THAT OF SIDE CHAIN THEN RING BECOMES Parent chain

68
Q

if ring is connected to benzene

A

benzene is parent chain

69
Q

if an alicyclic ring is directly connected to carbon containing functional group

A

then the c atom of functional group is not included in parent chain and the special type of naming is used
