    Study Notes

    Replacement Nomenclature

    • The primary principle is to replace the carbon atoms of the parent hydride with heteroatoms
    • The correct order for listing heteroatoms is: F, Cl, Br, I, O, S, Se, Te, N, P

    Naming Heterocyclic Compounds

    • The first step is to identify the parent hydride and replace the carbon atoms with heteroatoms
    • The elemental prefix is used to indicate the presence of heteroatoms
    • Combining the carbocycle's name and the elemental prefix gives the name of the heterocyclic compound

    Hantzsch-Widman Nomenclature System

    • The main purpose is to provide a systematic method for naming heterocyclic compounds
    • The correct order of components in an IUPAC name is: prefix, parent hydride, and suffix
    • The heteroatom is used as the starting point for numbering a monocyclic compound
    • The table is used to assign priorities to heteroatoms and to determine the correct suffix

    Numbering and Substituents

    • Substituents are numbered in a clockwise direction starting from the heteroatom
    • The difference between suffixes for nitrogen-containing and non-nitrogen-containing heterocycles is the presence of aza or oxo

    Prefixes and Suffixes

    • The prefix for a heterocyclic ring containing nitrogen is aza
    • The suffix for a fully saturated three-membered ring is irane
    • The correct name for a heterocyclic ring containing nitrogen and oxygen, with a fully saturated four-membered ring structure, is oxazetane

    Priority and Vowels

    • The correct order of priority for heteroatoms in a heterocyclic ring is: F, Cl, Br, I, O, S, Se, Te, N, P
    • When two vowels come together in a heterocyclic ring name, one is dropped
    • When two or more similar heteroatoms are present, a numerical prefix is used to indicate their position

    Partially Unsaturated Heterocyclic Compounds

    • The method of indicating the position of nitrogen or carbon atoms with extra hydrogen atoms is by using a hydrogen prefix
    • The purpose of using numbers in the nomenclature of partially unsaturated heterocyclic compounds is to indicate the degree of unsaturation
    • The notation used to indicate a double bond is a numerical prefix (e.g. dihydro)
    • A partially unsaturated heterocyclic compound with two saturated atoms is called a dihydro compound
    • The purpose of using special Hantzsch-Widman suffixes is to indicate the degree of unsaturation
    • The rule used for the nomenclature of partially unsaturated heterocyclic compounds is the Hantzsch-Widman system
    • The method used to indicate the position of saturated atoms is by using a numerical prefix
