Document Summary

24 (a) alkanes 24 (b) alkenes & alkynes . 27 (c) alkyl halides 27 (d) ethers 28 (e) benzene & aromatics . 28 (f) alcohols 29 (g) aldehydes & ketones . 30 (i) priorities of functional groups in iupac system 31. Isomerism 33 (a) chain isomerism 33 (b) position isomerism 34 (c) functional group isomerism 34 (d) tautomerism 35 (e) stereoisomerism 35. Stereochemistry 37 (a) newman projection 37 (b) conformers . 37 (c) conformation analysis of butane 38 (d) conformations of cyclohexanes 39 (e) stereochemistry of double bonds . One of the most commonly used nomenclature system that we use today based on the system and rules developed by the international union of pure and applied. Fundamental principle: each different compound shall have a unique name. Although the iupac naming system is now widely acceptable among chemists, common names (trivial names) of some compounds are still widely used by chemists and in commerce.
