IUPAC NOMENCLATURE
1.1 INTRODUCTION TO ORGANIC COMPOUNDS:-
Organic compounds are compounds of carbon and hydrogen and the following elements may also be
present: (Halogens, N, S, P, O). There are large no. of organic compounds available and large no of organic
compounds are synthesized every year.The most important reason for large no of organic compounds is the
property of catenation (self

Bond energy depends on
(i) Size of atom (Inversely proportional) Size : C
(ii) E.N difference along period (Directly) E.N Diff : C
(iii) Bond order (no. of covalet bonds b/w two atoms) (Directly) Bond order : C
C
Catenation in carbon:-
The element carbon has strongest tendency to show catenation or self
(a) its tetravalency so that it can form bonds with many elements as well as carbon itself.
(b) It can form multiple bonds (C = C, C C). Due to its small size, there is efficient colateral overlapping
b/w two P
Hybridised of carbon :
It is of three types and these are sp3, sp2 and sp. These hybridised state in any given structure can be
known by counting bond around the carbon atoms as bond are formed by hybrid orbitals. Thus if there
are four bonds, three bonds and two bonds around the carbon atom then C atom will be in sp3,
sp2 or sp hybridised state respectively.

Homologous series :
Homologous series may be defined as a series of similarly constituted compounds in which the members
possess the same functional group, have similar chemical characteristics and have a regular gradation in
their physical properties. The two consecutive members differ in their molecular formula by CH2.
Degree of carbon :
It is defined as the number of carbon atoms attached to a carbon atom.

Aromatic Compound [The Huckel (4n + 2) rule] :
The following three rules are useful in predicting whether a particular compound is aromatic or non!
1. Aromatic compounds are cyclic and planar.
2. Each atom in an aromatic ring is sp2 or sp hybridised and has close conjugation.
3. The cyclic molecular orbital (formed by overlap of p-orbitals) must contain (4n + 2) electrons,
i.e., 2, 6, 10, 14 ........ electrons. Where n = an integer 0, 1, 2, 3,..............

(1) Word Root : It indicates the no. of carbon atoms present in the main chain (parent chain). It is
represented as Alk.
page # 6
(2) Primary Suffix:- It indicates the saturation or unsaturation existing in the main chain.
ane single bond (saturated)
ene one = bond
diene If two double bonds
Polyene if plenty of double bond are present.
yne one bond
diyne two bond
(5) Secondary Prefix : Normal substitutents and junior functional groups are treated as a substituent,
then their name is treated as secondary prefix.
The following substituent groups are always cited in the prefix.
(i) 6 Alkyl
(ii) 6 Alkoxy
(iii) 7 halo (fluoro, chloro, bromo, iodo)
(iv) 2 Nitro
(v)
Nitroso
(vi) Junior functional groups.
The prefixes are always written in alphabetical order
The position of substituent group in the main carbon chain is mentioned by writing the number just
before the name of substituent by writing a hyphen (
(b) If number of carbon atoms are same in more than one longest chain then more substituted longest chain
will be the parent chain.
(c) If number of side chain are also same then that will be parent chain having its substituent at lower number.
C C

Numbering :
(a) Numbering is done from that side of the parent chain having it substituent at lower number
(lowest set of locant)
page # 7
(b) If position of substituent are same from both the end of the parent chain, then numbering is done
from alphbetical order.
* If alphabets are also same then numbering is done from that side of the parent chain having its
substituent of substituent at lower number.
