Organic Chem

Organic Chemistry : 

Organic Chemistry The study of carbon-containing compounds and their properties. The vast majority of organic compounds contain chains or rings of carbon atoms.

Hydrocarbons : 

Hydrocarbons . . . compounds composed of carbon and hydrogen. Saturated: carbon-carbon bonds are all single - alkanes [CnH2n+2]

Hydrocarbons(continued) : 

Hydrocarbons(continued) Unsaturated: contains carbon-carbon multiple bonds.

Rules for Naming Alkanes : 

Rules for Naming Alkanes 1. See p. 999-1000. For alkanes beyond butane, add -ane to the Greek root for the number of carbons. C-C-C-C-C-C = hexane 2. Alkyl substituents: drop the -ane and add -yl. -C2H5 is ethyl

Rules for Naming Alkanes : 

Rules for Naming Alkanes 3. Positions of substituent groups are specified by numbering the longest chain sequentially. C  C-C-C-C-C-C 3-methylhexane 4. Location and name are followed by root alkane name. Substituents in alphabetical order and use di-, tri-, etc.

Naming Alkyl Halides : 

Naming Alkyl Halides Named the same way as alkanes, but the halogen gets priority numbering. 3-chloro 4 methyl heptane, 2 chloro 6-methyl heptane

Cyclic Alkanes :
