Study Notes
IUPAC Recommendations
- IUPAC Recommendations are published in the IUPAC Standards Online database.
- The Recommendations appear in the IUPAC Standards Online database within 6-12 months after approval.
Chemical Nomenclature and Terminology
- Information on chemical nomenclature and terminology can be accessed through the IUPAC website and the IUPAC Standards Online database.
IUPAC Nomenclature
- The suffix "-yl" is used to name the substituents formed by the removal of one hydrogen from the end of a straight chain saturated hydrocarbon.
- According to the IUPAC rules, numbers and letters are separated by a hyphen in the name of a compound.
- IUPAC nomenclature can be used to name most organic compounds, but not all.
Authority on Chemical Nomenclature
- IUPAC (International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry) is the universally-recognized authority on chemical nomenclature and terminology.
Compound Nomenclature
- The compound with the IUPAC name N-(2-[(5-[(dimethylamino)methyl]furan-2-yl)methylthio]ethyl)-N'-methyl-2-nitroethene-1,1-diamine has a complex name due to its structure.
- The general notation for an aryl group (any aromatic ring) is Ar.
Benzene Ring Substituents
- In the case of disubstituted benzenes, the relative locations of substituents on a benzene ring are designated using ortho- (1,2-), meta- (1,3-), and para- (1,4-) prefixes.
