Quiz on Functional Groups
General Strategy For Naming Simple Organic Compounds (Bare bones summary sheets)
1. Find the highest priority group. These are listed in order of priority in the table of functional groups.
2. Find the longest chain containing the highest priority group. You should know carbon chains of length C1-C12 (listed in the table).
3. Number the longest chain containing the highest priority group to give the highest priority group the lowest number possible in numbering the longest chain. For the first seven groups, the functional group carbon will be number 1 (if it is the highest priority group) and the “1” can be omitted, since it is understood that it has to be this way.
4. Usually the highest priority group is named as a suffix at the end of alkane, alk-#-ene or alk-#-yne. The final e is dropped if the suffix begins with a vowel and it is retained if the suffix begins with a consonant. A number will be present in front of the suffix name unless its position is unambiguously clear (i.e. carboxyl groups aldehydes, nitriles, etc. always = 1, if highest in priority). If there is a C/C pi functional group to identify (alkene or alkyne), the number in front of its part of the name describes its position (see rule 6 below). If both a pi bond and a high priority substituent are present, then two numbers may be necessary, one for each functionality.
5. Lower priority groups are named with their prefix names and their location numbers based on the numbering of the parent chain (always true for substituents numbered 12 on the next page). The lower priority substituents should be listed in alphabetical order. Some parts of prefix names count in this regard and some don't. We will not emphasize this aspect in this course.
6. Double bonds and triple bonds are named as alk-#-ene or alk-#-yne, respectively. If both are present, name as alk-#-en-#-yne. Multiple pi bonds (or other substituents) use the prefixes di, tri, tetra, penta etc. with a number for each occurrence. In such cases, an "a" is added in front of the numerical prefix for better phonetics. (alka-#,#-diene or alka-#,#,#-triyne, alka-#,#-dien-#,#-diyne, etc.)
The essential functional groups to know (for our course) and their prefixes and suffixes are given in the attached table. In this table the term “alkan-#-suffix” is a generic term for any alkane with a functional group suffix, and it must be replaced with the correct parent stem name based on the number of carbons in the longest chain (C1-C12 for us). If there is a double bond, the name will change to “alk-#-en-#-suffix and if there is a triple bond, the name will change to “alk-#-yn-#-suffix.

Quiz on Functional Groups There are over 100 functional group patterns in organic chemistry. The following are commonly encountered functional groups in first year organic chemistry. A specific example of each functional group with a name is give so that you can use this as a study sheet. You will need to know all of these functional groups and how to name simple examples on the midterm. A nomenclature quiz is possible at any time during the course. You will be allowed to use your own, self-generated nomenclature worksheet on any of these quizzes. I would suggest making one before the next lecture, and using it on homework sets too.

Quiz on Functional Groups Name ______________________________ Use the examples on the reverse side of this page to fill in the functional group with the correct carbon chain. You will need to know all of these functional groups and how to name simple example on the midterm. A nomenclature quiz is possible at any time during the course. You will be allowed to use your own, self-generated nomenclature worksheet on any of these quizzes. I would suggest making one before the next lecture.

Quiz on Functional Groups
Information and Examples
Primary carbon chain lengths (R = carbon chain)
1 carbon = methane 2 carbons = ethane 3 carbons = propane 4 carbons = butane 5 carbons = pentane 6 carbons = hexane 7 carbons = heptane 8 carbons = octane 9 carbons = nonane10 carbons = decane11 carbons = undecane12 carbons = dodecane
Functional Groups Prefix (when lower priority) Suffix (when higher priority)*
1. carboxylic acids not used in our course -oic acid 2. anhydrides not used in our course -anhydride 3. esters (two parts) none for now alkyl -oate 4. acid chlorides none for now -oyl chloride 5. amides none for now -amide 6. nitriles cyano- -nitrile 7. aldehydes oxo- -al 8. ketones oxo- -one 9. alcohols hydroxy- -ol10. thiols mercapto- -thiol11. amines amino- -amine12. ethers (two parts) alkoxy- none13. thioethers (two parts) alkylthio- none14. alkenes none -ene15.alkynes none -yne16. halogen compounds fluoro-, chloro-, bromo-, iodo- none17. nitro compounds nitro- none18. nitroso- nitroso- none
*When a suffix starts with a vowel, drop the final "e" of the name with the correct carbon chain length. When a suffix starts with a consonant, retain the final "e" of the chain length name.
Branch carbon chain lengths (drop "-ane" and add "-yl")
1 carbon = methyl 2 carbons = ethyl 3 carbons = propyl 4 carbons = butyl 5 carbons = pentyl 6 carbons = hexyl 7 carbons = heptyl 8 carbons = octyl 9 carbons = nonyl10 carbons = decyl11 carbons = undecyl12 carbons = dodecyl
