Study Notes

Principles of Replacement Nomenclature

  • The primary principle of replacement nomenclature in heterocyclic compounds is to replace a carbon atom with a heteroatom in a carbocyclic compound.

Listing Heteroatoms

  • The correct order for listing heteroatoms in replacement nomenclature is O, S, Se, Te, N, P, As, Sb, Bi, Si, Ge, Sn, Pb.

Naming Heterocyclic Compounds

  • The first step in naming a heterocyclic compound using the replacement method is to identify the parent hydrocarbon.
  • The correct name for the compound tetrahydrofuran using replacement nomenclature is oxolane.

Elemental Prefix

  • The purpose of the elemental prefix in replacement nomenclature is to indicate the presence of a heteroatom.
  • Combining the carbocycle's name and the elemental prefix results in the name of the heterocyclic compound.

Hantzsch-Widman Nomenclature System

  • The main purpose of the Hantzsch-Widman nomenclature system is to provide a systematic method for naming heterocyclic compounds.
  • The correct order of components in an IUPAC name according to the Hantzsch-Widman nomenclature system is prefix + suffix.
  • The purpose of the table in the Hantzsch-Widman nomenclature system is to provide a list of prefixes and suffixes for heteroatoms.

Numbering Heterocyclic Compounds

  • The heteroatom is used as the starting point for numbering a monocyclic compound.
  • Substituents in a monocyclic compound are numbered starting from the heteroatom.

Suffixes and Prefixes

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

Priority of Heteroatoms

  • The correct order of priority for heteroatoms in a heterocyclic ring is O, S, Se, Te, N, P, As, Sb, Bi, Si, Ge, Sn, Pb.
  • When two or more similar heteroatoms are present in the ring, 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 in partially unsaturated heterocyclic compounds is by using the suffixes -ine, -yne, and -diene.
  • 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 in a partially unsaturated heterocyclic compound is -ene.
  • A partially unsaturated heterocyclic compound with two saturated atoms is called a dihydro compound.
  • The purpose of using special Hantzsch-Widman suffixes in the nomenclature of partially unsaturated heterocyclic compounds is to indicate the degree of unsaturation.
  • The rule used for the nomenclature of partially unsaturated heterocyclic compounds is the RHC rule.
