Learn about naming conventions, locants, unique names, and properties of substituted derivatives of benzene. Explore examples of substituted benzenes and their distinct features.
E N D
General Points 1) Benzene is considered as the parent andcomes last in the name.
Examples Br NO2 C(CH3)3 Bromobenzene tert-Butylbenzene Nitrobenzene
General Points 1) Benzene is considered as the parent andcomes last in the name. 2) List substituents in alphabetical order 3) Number ring in direction that gives lowest substituent at first point of difference
Example Cl Br F 2-bromo-1-chloro-4-fluorobenzene
Ortho, Meta, and Para alternative locants for disubstitutedderivatives of benzene 1,2 = ortho(abbreviated o-) 1,3 = meta(abbreviated m-) 1,4 = para(abbreviated p-)
Cl Cl Examples NO2 CH2CH3 o-ethylnitrobenzene m-dichlorobenzene (1-ethyl-2-nitrobenzene) (1,3-dichlorobenzene)
Unique Names Certain monosubstituted derivatives of benzene have unique names
O CH Unique Names Benzaldehyde
O COH Unique Names Benzoic acid
CH CH2 Unique Names Styrene
O CCH3 Unique Names Acetophenone
OH Unique Names Phenol
OCH3 Unique Names Anisole
NH2 Unique Names Aniline
OCH3 OCH3 NO2 Using Unique Names Anisole p-Nitroanisoleor4-Nitroanisole
The “unique” substituent is given the 1-position; the ring is numbered in the direction that yields the lowest possible number
Easily confused names CH2— OH phenyl phenol benzyl
Naphthalene resonance energy = 255 kJ/mol most stable Lewis structure;both rings correspond to Kekulé benzene
Anthracene and Phenanthrene Phenanthrene Anthracene resonance energy: 347 kJ/mol 381 kJ/mol
Physical Properties Resemble other hydrocarbons nonpolar insoluble in water less dense than water
