Highland Science Department Hydrocarbon Nomenclature Organic Chemistry: chemistry of molecules based on carbon.
Highland Science Department Hydrocarbon Nomenclature Organic Chemistry: chemistry of molecules based on carbon. -since carbon can share up to 4 electrons it allows for the development of a vast variety of different and complex molecules
Highland Science Department Hydrocarbon Nomenclature Organic Chemistry: chemistry of molecules based on carbon. -since carbon can share up to 4 electrons it allows for the development of a vast variety of different and complex molecules -all life that we have discovered is based on carbon rich molecules e.g. proteins, carbohydrates, lipids
Highland Science Department Hydrocarbon Nomenclature Organic Chemistry: chemistry of molecules based on carbon. -since carbon can share up to 4 electrons it allows for the development of a vast variety of different and complex molecules -all life that we have discovered is based on carbon rich molecules e.g. proteins, carbohydrates, lipids -and all of these molecules start with a carbon skeleton (a chain of carbon atoms)
Highland Science Department Hydrocarbon Nomenclature Hydrocarbon: a chain of carbon atoms with hydrogens forming the extra electron sharing pairs
Highland Science Department Hydrocarbon Nomenclature Hydrocarbon: a chain of carbon atoms with hydrogens forming the extra electron sharing pairs -the simplest organic molecules
Highland Science Department Hydrocarbon Nomenclature Hydrocarbon: a chain of carbon atoms with hydrogens forming the extra electron sharing pairs -the simplest organic molecules -other organic molecules are made by substituting other elements for the hydrogens
Highland Science Department Hydrocarbon Nomenclature Naming: simple hydrocarbons are named based on the number of carbons and the number of bonds between the carbons

Highland Science Department Hydrocarbon Nomenclature Alkanes: hydrocarbons with only single bonds -named using the appropriate root + "ane" e.g. C2H6 = eth + ane = ethane
Highland Science Department Hydrocarbon Nomenclature Alkanes: hydrocarbons with only single bonds -named using the appropriate root + "ane" e.g. C2H6 = eth + ane = ethane structural formula
Highland Science Department Hydrocarbon Nomenclature Alkenes: hydrocarbons with one or more double bond -named using the appropriate root + "ene" e.g. C2H4 = eth + ene = ethene structural formula
Highland Science Department Hydrocarbon Nomenclature Alkenes: -for longer molecules, the location of the double bond is identified by numbering the carbons so the double bond is in the lowest position -the number of the carbon with the double bond is written in front of the name with a hyphen
Highland Science Department Hydrocarbon Nomenclature Alkenes: -for longer molecules, the location of the double bond is identified by numbering the carbons so the double bond is in the lowest position -the number of the carbon with the double bond is written in front of the name with a hyphen -e.g. 2-pentene not 3-pentene
Highland Science Department Hydrocarbon Nomenclature Alkynes: hydrocarbons with one or more triple bond -named using the appropriate root + "yne" e.g. C2H2 = eth + yne = ethyne structural formula
Highland Science Department Hydrocarbon Nomenclature Alkynes: -longer alkynes follow the same rules as alkenes e.g.
Highland Science Department Hydrocarbon Nomenclature Alkynes: -longer alkynes follow the same rules as alkenes e.g. 3-hexyne
Highland Science Department Hydrocarbon Nomenclature Try these: 1. propane 2. 2-butene 3. 1-pentyne 4. CH3 – CH2 – CH2 – CH3 5. CH2 = CH – CH2 – CH3 6. CH3 – CH2 – C = C – CH3
