This is a set of practice problems on naming organic compounds. The examples cover the nomenclature of alkanes, bicyclic compounds, alkenes, alkynes, alcohols, alkyl halides, amines, ethers, and carboxylic acid derivatives such as nitriles, esters and amides.
Functional groups: alcohol, ether, aldehyde, ketone, carboxylic acid, ester, amide, and amine. For each molecule circle and name the functional group. Some molecules will have more than one functional group; in those cases circle and name all functional groups present.
Naming Alcohols with Practice Problems. Naming alcohols follows the same rules we discussed earlier for the IUPAC nomenclature rules for alkanes. This is the brief summary of steps: Step 1. Identify the parent chain. Step 2. Identify the substituents. Step 3. Number the parent chain giving the OH group the lowest locant.
Organic Nomenclature Quiz. This online quiz is intended to give you extra practice in concepts related to introductory organic nomenclature, including naming compounds and identifying functional groups from diagrams.
ETHERS WORKSHEET. Give the correct name, either IUPAC or common, to each of the following ethers: (hint: alkoxy group takes priority over alkene so it is part of the prefix) Draw the structural formula for the following organic compounds. dimethyl ether. 2-methoxypropane. 1-ethoxybutane.
Naming Ethers Practice Problems. 29 problems. 1 PRACTICE PROBLEM. True or False. A four-membered ring ether, known as oxacyclobutane, has a similar reactivity to an epoxide rather than a noncyclic ether because it has ring strain. 1. 2 PRACTICE PROBLEM. For the following structure, determine the systematic name of this ether. 1. 3 PRACTICE PROBLEM.
