Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The substitutive name and common name of CH3CH2CH2CH2CCH are to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The systematic naming of organic compound is given by IUPAC nomenclature. The naming of organic compound is done such that the structure of the organic compound is correctly interpreted from the name.

Rules for writing IUPAC name from the structural formula are given below.

  • First, identify the longest carbon chain.
  • The next step is to identify the groups attached to the longest chain.
  • Identify the position, location, and a number of the substituents bonded to the carbon chain.
  • Use prefix di, tri, tetra if the same type of substituents is present.
  • Name the substituents in alphabetical order.

Answer to Problem 14.3P

The common name of the compound CH3CH2CH2CH2CCH is butyl acetylene. The substitutive name of the compound is 1-hexyne.

Explanation of Solution

The compound CH3CH2CH2CH2CCH has an acetylene group (CCH) in it which is attached to a four-carbon atom chain termed as butyl group. Therefore, the common name of the compound CH3CH2CH2CH2CCH is butyl acetylene.

The compound CH3CH2CH2CH2CCH has six carbon atom in the longest chain. Therefore, hex- will be used in prefix. The number of the carbon atoms will be started from the carbon atom which forms a triple bond.

The number on the carbon atoms in the compound is shown below.

C6H3C5H2C4H2C3H2C2C1H

The compound is alkyne. Therefore, -yne will be present as the suffix. The triple bond is present on the first carbon atom. The compound has six carbon atom long chain. Therefore, the substitutive name of the compound is 1-hexyne.

Conclusion

The common name of the compound CH3CH2CH2CH2CCH is butyl acetylene. The substitutive name of the compound is 1-hexyne.

Answer to Problem 14.3P

The common name of the compound CH3CH2CH2CH2CCCH2CH2CH2CH3 is dibutyl acetylene. The substitutive name of the compound is 5-decyne.

Explanation of Solution

The compound CH3CH2CH2CH2CCCH2CH2CH2CH3 has a acetylene group (CC) in it which is attached to two four-carbon atom chain termed as butyl group. Therefore, the common name of the compound CH3CH2CH2CH2CCCH2CH2CH2CH3 is dibutyl acetylene.

The compound CH3CH2CH2CH2CCCH2CH2CH2CH3 has ten carbon atom in the longest chain. Therefore, dec- will be used in prefix. The number of the carbon atoms will be started from the carbon atom which gives the lowest number to triple bond in the chain.

The number on the carbon atoms in the compound is shown below.

C1H3C2H2C3H2C4H2C5C6C7H2C8H2C9H2C10H3

The compound is alkyne. Therefore, -yne will be present as the suffix. The triple bond is present on the fifth carbon atom. The compound has ten-carbon atom long chain. Therefore, the substitutive name of the compound is 5-decyne.

Conclusion

The common name of the compound CH3CH2CH2CH2CCH is dibutyl acetylene. The substitutive name of the compound is 5-decyne.
