Organic chemistry. Names of aromatic compounds

SUBJECT: Nomenclature of organic compounds .

Nomenclature is the language of organic chemistry, which is used to convey in the names of organic compounds their structure; it is a system of rules that allows you to give unambiguous names to each individual connection.

There are different systems of nomenclature for organic compounds: historical, rational, modern, or international.

The main one is the international systematic nomenclature, or Geneva. Its main principles were adopted at the international congress

chemists in Geneva in 1892. Later, changes were made to it, and the modern nomenclature bears the abbreviation IUPAC.

In order to name a substance, you must choose the longest chain, and then follow the following rules:

THEORETICAL PART.

The names of compounds consist of three parts :

1. the first part indicates the number of carbon atoms in the chain and its

name (see below frommeth - before dec -)

If the carbon chain contains a certain number of carbon atoms, then the name of the chain will begin in accordance with this table, see the endings of the names, respectively, in paragraph 2.

one carbon atom  met- six carbon atoms hex-

two carbon atom =this- seven carbon atoms hept-

three carbon atom =prop- eight carbon atoms oct-

four carbon atom but- nine carbon atoms non-

five carbon atoms =pent- ten carbon atoms dec(dec-)

2. ending (particle at the end of the name) indicates the presence of single or multiple bonds.

a) particle -an- means that all connections in the carbon chainsingle,

b) - en one double bond ,

G) -diene means that the carbon chain hastwo double bonds

e) - in means that the carbon chain hasone triple bond.

After designating the multiplicity of the bond, you need to indicate its location in the chain by writing the number of the carbon atom at which it begins.

3. If a substance has a functional group, then particles are added to its name:

a) - ol - means hydroxo group- IS HE

b) -amine - means amino group– NH 2 O

in) -al – means carbonyl group (aldehydes– S – N ),

G) -is he stands for carbonyl group (ketones- C \u003d O ),

∣

e) -ovaya acid means the presence of a carboxyl group in the chain–COOH

After designating the functional group, you need to indicate its location in the chain by writing the number of the carbon atom at which it begins.

4. If radicals are attached to the chain, then it is necessary to name them by adding a particle- silt to the name of the number of carbon atoms that is included in this radical, indicating the number of the carbon atom to which it is attached.

Radicals are always listed in front of the carbon chain name.

5. When numbering a chain, remember that you need to start it from that

side to which it is closer (taking into account seniority):

a) functional group

b) multiple bond

c) the presence of a radical

Drawing up formulas by the name of substances

To compose by the name of the substance chemical formula, the following procedure is required:

1. divide the given name of the substance into parts according to the above points 1 - 6

2. arrange the carbon chain according to the given number of atoms

3. put down the functional group

4. Considering the numbers, put down links in it

5. according to the indicated numbers, put down the radicals

6. fill in the missing hydrogen atoms

For example:

Draw the following substance according to IUPAC: 2-methyl-3-ethylbuten-2-ol-1

1) 2-meth-yl-3-eth-yl-but-en-2-ol-1

2) largest number stands forbut - means a chain of 6 carbons

3) -ol-1 means a hydroxo group at the first carbon atom

4) -en-2 means a double bond at the second carbon atom

5) 2-methyl - 3 - ethyl means two radical (first and second) second and third carbon atom

Therefore, the formula looks like this: 5 CH 3 - 4 CH 2 - 3 C \u003d 2 C - 1 CH 2 - IS HE

Nomenclature - a set of names of individual chemical substances, their groups and classes, as well as the rules for composing their names. The name of a substance should reflect not only its qualitative and quantitative composition, but also clearly show its chemical structure, the name should correspond to a single structure formula. The scientific development of the nomenclature of organic compounds began in the middle of the 19th century, its further development led to the modern nomenclature developed by the international commission according to the nomenclature of organic compounds of the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC). The structure of the molecules of organic compounds is expressed using complex name words, including the following fragments:
a) the designation of carbon chains C n: C - "met", C 2 - "et", C 3 - "prop", C 4 - "but", C 5 and subsequent - the roots of Greek numerals - "pent", "hex ”, “hept”, “oct”, “non”, etc.
b) designations of side chains - hydrocarbon radicals - consist of the above names of carbon chains and the ending "yl" (methyl, ethyl, propyl, etc.).
c) designation of the nature of the bond between atoms - “an” - single, “en” - double, “in” - triple bond
d) the designation of characteristic groups, and the name of the same group differs depending on the method of constructing the name and on the seniority of the group - the older one is mentioned in the suffix, the younger one in the prefix.
e) multiplying prefixes - "di", "three", "tetra" and their modified forms - "bis", "tris", etc., showing the number of identical structural elements
f) locants - numbers or letters showing the order of articulation of the constituent parts of the molecule
g) separating characters - hyphens, commas, dots, brackets.
When compiling a name according to the IUPAC nomenclature (as well as when constructing a structural formula according to the name), the following rules are consistently followed:
1) Find the senior characteristic group and choose a designation for it in the suffix (table 1).
2) Identify and name the main chain or main ring structure to which the main characteristic group adjoins. At the same time, they are guided by the following precedence of structural fragments: characteristic groups in order of decreasing precedence (those for which mention is provided in the suffix), double bond, triple bond, other prefix substituents in alphabetical order.
3) Determine the multiplicity of bonds, using the suffixes "an", "en" and "in" to indicate it, and in the carbo- or heterocyclic series - the prefixes "dihydro", "tetrahydro", etc.
4) Determine the nature of the substituents (side chains and junior substituents) and arrange their designations in alphabetical order in the prefix part of the name.
5) Determine the multiplying prefixes, taking into account that they do not affect the alphabetical order of the prefixes.
6) Carry out the numbering of the main chain or the main cyclic structure, while the main characteristic group should have the smallest number. Lokants are placed before the name of the main structure (2-butanol, 3-hexanol), before prefixes (3-chlorobutanol-1), before or after the suffix to which they refer (3-hexen-2-one, 3-hexanone-2) .
7) Compose the name from the above components, using the necessary delimiters.

Example 1

We determine the longest chain of carbon atoms (it will be the main one) and number the carbon atoms. This compound has a characteristic amino group and a side chain containing one carbon atom. The prefix part of the name, given that the amino group is older than the side chain: 2-methyl-3-amino- ... The main chain contains 5 carbon atoms, so the main part of the name "pent" (five): 2-methyl-3-aminopent ... The presence of a double bond indicated by the suffix "en": 2-methyl-3-aminopentene-... The double bond begins at the carbon atom of the main chain with serial number 1, so finally: 2-methyl-3-aminopentene-1.

The generally accepted nomenclature for organic substances is the IUPAC systematic nomenclature.

The name is based on the name of the main carbon chain of the molecule, which may not be the longest, but must necessarily include multiple bonds (or their maximum number) and the oldest functional group (or their maximum number) of the compound. To designate functional groups in the names, the appropriate prefixes (prefixes) or suffixes are used (see Appendix A, tables A.1 and A.2). The formulas and names of the main functional groups must be learned by heart.

In the name of an organic substance, as in any word, one can distinguish a prefix, a root, a suffix and an ending. Each part of the word carries its own semantic load (table 2.1).

Table 2.1 - Composing the name of an organic substance

Name of the organic matter
PREFIX	ROOT	SUFFIX	THE ENDING
Substituents (radicals, junior functional groups, senior functional groups not included in the main chain)	Number of main chain carbons	Degree of saturation C-C connections in the main circuit	senior functional group
ü The order is alphabetical. ü With the help of Arabic numerals, the place of each group in the main chain is indicated. ü For identical substituents, multiplying prefixes are used di-, tri-, tetra-, penta- etc.	Met- At- Prop- Booth- Pent- Hex- Gept- Oct- Non- Dec- (dec-)	1 C 2 C 3 C 4 C 5 C 6 C 7 C 8 C 9 C 10 C	ü-an (only single bonds); ü-en (1 double bond); ü-diene (2 double bonds) ü-yne (1 triple bond), etc. ü For multiple bonds, the place in the chain is indicated.	ü Arabic numerals indicate the place of the functional group in the chain (except for the aldehyde and carboxyl groups). ü Multiplying prefixes are used for identical groups di-, tri-, tetra-, penta- etc.

· Root words corresponds to the name of the number of carbon atoms of the main carbon chain.

· Suffix indicates the degree of saturation of the main chain. Yes, suffix -an indicates the absence of multiple bonds in the main carbon chain. A double bond is indicated by the suffix -en, triple - suffix -in. Greek numerals are used to denote several of the same type of multiple bonds. di-, tri-, tetra-, penta-, etc.. For multiple bonds, their place in the main chain must be indicated, using Arabic numerals located after the suffix.

· The ending corresponds to the name of the senior functional group with an indication of its place in the main carbon chain. Greek numerals are used to denote several functional groups of the same type. di-, tri-, tetra-, etc..

· AT prefix (prefix) in alphabetical order, indicating the place in the main carbon chain, hydrocarbon radicals and functional groups not indicated at the end of the name are listed. Multiplying prefixes are used for identical radicals or functional groups di-, tri-, tetra-, etc..

Algorithm for compiling a systematic name

organic matter

1. We determine the highest functional group and the class of the compound. If a substance does not contain functional groups and consists only of carbon and hydrogen atoms, then it is a hydrocarbon. Functional groups in descending order of precedence are given in Appendix A (Table A.1).

2. By the presence or absence of multiple bonds between carbon atoms, we determine the degree of saturation of the carbon chain.

3. Choose the main carbon chain.

· The main carbon chain begins and ends with a primary carbon atom, i.e. a carbon atom that forms bonds with only one carbon neighbor.

· For saturated organic compounds, it should be the longest of all possible, and should also include the highest functional group (or their maximum number).

In saturated hydrocarbons, choose the longest carbon chain. If there are several such chains, then we choose the most branched chain containing radicals with a smaller volume.

· For unsaturated compounds, the main chain must necessarily include a multiple bond or their maximum number, as well as the highest functional group (or their maximum number).

· In unsaturated hydrocarbons, the main chain may not be the longest, but must include a multiple bond (or their maximum number).

In aromatic hydrocarbons with a branched side chain, we choose the main chain in the side branch, considering the aromatic ring as a radical.

· Carbocyclic and heterocyclic structures, as a rule, are included in the main chain.

4. We number the selected main carbon chain.

We start the numbering of carbon atoms from the end to which the highest functional group is closer (or their maximum number).

· If the functional group is equidistant from the ends of the chain, then the numbering direction is determined by the position of the multiple carbon-carbon bond.

In saturated hydrocarbons, we begin the chain numbering from the end to which structural radicals (or their maximum number) are closer, taking into account their seniority. The fewer carbon atoms are included in the radical and the less its branching, the older the radical.

· In unsaturated hydrocarbons, the direction of numbering is determined by a multiple bond, and the double bond is older than the triple bond.

Arenas are numbered benzene ring so that the substituents get as low numbers as possible. The beginning of the numbering determines the leading radical.

In a heterocycle, the start of numbering is determined by the heteroatom.

5. We compose the name of the organic substance.

Remember:

· After suffixes indicating the presence of multiple carbon-carbon bonds in the main chain, a hyphen is placed, and then Arabic numerals showing their position and separated by commas.

· The position of the senior functional groups is indicated by Arabic numerals, which are placed after the corresponding ending and separated from it by a hyphen.

・After graduation -al or -oic acid numbers are not needed, because the numbering of the main chain starts from the carbon atoms of the corresponding functional groups.

· The number of substituents indicated in the name must match the number of digits indicating their position in the chain.

Multiplying prefixes are used for identical substituents di-, tri-, tetra-, penta-, etc.

Naming examples

C - C - C C - C C C

Note. In this example, only the carbon skeleton of the molecule is shown. Before compiling the name of the compound, it is necessary to add H atoms to the above formula, taking into account the fact that the C atom in organic compounds is 4-valent.

CH 2 –CH 2 –CH–CH 2 –CH 2 –CH 2 –C–CH 3

CH 3 -CH-CH 3 CH 2 -CH 3 H 3 C CH 3

1. The substance whose structural formula is given above is a hydrocarbon.

2. Between carbon atoms, all bonds are single. Therefore, it is a saturated hydrocarbon - an alkane.

3. We choose the longest and most branched chain, starting and ending with its primary C atom.

4. We number the selected chain from the end to which the methyl radicals are closer (the methyl radical is older than the ethyl radical).

At naming substances according to its structural formula(and vice versa) you must perform the following steps in sequence:

1. Find the main one (by seniority) characteristic group and choose a designation for it in the suffix.

2. Find main carbon chain (cycle) including the main characteristic group, and number it from the end of the chain, closer to which the older group is located. If there are several such possibilities, then you need to consider the presence of:

a) other characteristic groups (by seniority);
b) double bond;
c) triple bond;
d) other substituents (in alphabetical order).

3. To the name of the main circuit add suffix denoting the degree of saturation of connections. If there are several multiple bonds in the molecule, their number must be indicated in the suffix, and after the suffix - their position in the carbon chain in Arabic numerals. Further, the name of the senior characteristic group is included in the suffix, indicating its position in Arabic numerals.

4. Using prefixes (prefixes) designate deputies(side chains, minor characteristic groups) and arrange them alphabetically. The position of the substitute must be indicated by a number before the prefix.

5. Arrange digital set-top boxes, indicating the number of repeating structural elements (they are not taken into account when prefixing alphabetically).

6. Arrange punctuation marks: separate all numbers from words with a hyphen, and from each other with commas.
