1. Branched Alkanes

2. Substituents
Any hydrogen in a hydrocarbon chain can be substituted with another hydrocarbon group

3. Substituents
The substituted hydrocarbon group is called an alkyl group
Suffix: -yl: hydrocarbon group

4. Branched Chains
When an alkane chain gets another hydrocarbon group substituted onto it
Branches: sidechains

5. Branched Chains C
C C C C C C
C C C

6. Naming Branched Chains

7. Drill: Name Each:
H3C-CH2-CH3
C-C-C-C-C

8. ) Find the longest continuous carbon chain & name it as the main chain
) Find the longest continuous carbon chain & name it as the main chain. The final name will end with the naming of the main chain

9. C Hexane
C C C C C C
C C C

11. ) Number each carbon in the chain; so that, the side chains will be connected to the lowest possible numbers on the carbons

12. C Hexane
C1 C2 C3 C4 C5 C6
C C C

13. ) Name the side chains or substituted groups, & precede them with the # of the carbon they are connected to & a dash

14. C 2-methyl
C1 C2 C3 C4 C5 C6
C C C
2-methyl 4-ethyl

15. ) If identical groups appear more than once, use prefixes: di for 2, tri for 3, tetra for 4, penta for 5, etc Examples: dimethyl, tripropyl, etc

16. C 2,2-dimethyl
C1 C2 C3 C4 C5 C6
C C C
4-ethyl

17. ) Name the sidechains or groups in alphabetical order, but ignore the prefixes when doing so
Examples: ethyl comes before dimethyl, e < m

18. ) Separate numbers with commas, use hyphens between words & numbers, and write the alkanes as one word
Example: dimethylhexane

19. C
C C C C C C
C C C
4-ethyl-2,2-dimethylhexane

20. Name the organic compounds in problem 11-5 on page 315

21. Name the organic compound on the board

22. Drill: Name
CH3
CH2
H3C-CH-CH2-CH-CH-CH3
CH CH2

23. Deriving Structures from Names
Draw the main chain first
Look the name ending
Draw the branches
Look the # & group name

24. Draw: 3,4-diethyl-2-methyloctane 2,3,5-trimethylhexane
5-butyl-3-ethyl-2,6,8-trimethyl-4-propyldecane

25. 5-butyl-3-ethyl-2,6,8,9-tetramethyl-4,7-dipropyldecane
Drill: Draw:
5-butyl-3-ethyl-2,6,8,9-tetramethyl-4,7-dipropyldecane
