How are secondary and tertiary amines named
By using an N-alkyl prefix to show what the shorter chain is and the longer chain followed by suffix ane
N-methylamino ethane
What name is given to the alcohol group when the functional group is an alcohol is paired with a nitrile or anything with a C=o
Prefix- hydroxy
2-hydroxypropanic acid
What is structurally isomerism
When compounds have the same molecular formula but are arranged different
What are the two types of isomerism
Structural and steroisomerism
What are the 3 types of structural isomerism
Chain
Positional
Functional group
What is positional isomerism
Same molecular formula but functional groups are in different positions on the carbon chain
What is chain isomerism
Same molecular formula but the order of the carbon chain is different
What is functional isomerism
Same molecular formula but contain different functional groups
I.e. Carboxylic acid and esters CnH2n O2
What groups show functional isomerism
Alkenes and cycloalkanes
Carboxylic acids and ester
Ketone and aldehyde
Alcohols and ethers
What is steroisomerism
The same molecular formula but atoms are arranged differently in space
What are the two types of steroisomerism
Geometrical
Optical isomerism
When does geometrical isomerism occur
In an alkenes when both carbon atoms are attached two different Groups
What are the two types of geometrical isomerism and how do they differ
Z same side
E- different sides
What is chirality in a molecule
When a carbon atom is attached to 4 different groups
What are optical isomers
When there are two non superimposable mirror images (enantiomers)
