Identify functional groups
We analyze the main functional group in each molecule to determine its organic family.
- a) Contains an oxygen atom single-bonded to two carbon groups: \(\text{R-O-R'}\). This is an ether.
- b) Contains a carbonyl group adjacent to an ether-like oxygen: \(\text{R-C(=O)-O-R'}\). This is an ester.
- c) Contains a carboxyl group: \(\text{-COOH}\). This is a carboxylic acid.
- d) Contains a carbonyl group bonded to two carbons: \(\text{R-C(=O)-R'}\). This is a ketone.
- e) Contains a hydroxyl group: \(\text{-OH}\). This is an alcohol.
- f) Contains a carbonyl group at the end of a chain: \(\text{-CHO}\). This is an aldehyde.
Name compound (a)
- Structure: An oxygen atom connected to a propyl group on the right (\(\text{-CH}_2\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_3\)) and a highly branched carbon on the left.
- Left group analysis: The central carbon is bonded to three butyl groups (\(\text{-CH}_2\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_3\)).
- IUPAC naming: The longest continuous carbon chain containing the central carbon is 9 carbons (nonane). The central carbon is carbon-5. At carbon-5, we have a butyl group and a propoxy group (\(\text{-O-CH}_2\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_3\)).
- Name: 5-butyl-5-propoxynonane.
- Family: Ether.
Name compound (b)
- Structure: \(\text{CH}_3\text{CH}(\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_3)\text{CH}_2\text{-C(=O)-O-CH}_2\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_3\)
- Alcohol part (right of O): Hexyl group (6 carbons).
- Acid part (left of O, including carbonyl): The carbonyl carbon is C1. The chain is \(\text{C}^1\text{(=O)-C}^2\text{H}_2\text{-C}^3\text{H}(\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_3)\text{-C}^4\text{H}_3\). The longest chain starting from C1 is 5 carbons (pentanoate) with a methyl group at C3, or 4 carbons with an ethyl group at C3. The longest chain is 5 carbons: \(\text{C}^1\text{-C}^2\text{-C}^3\text{-C}^4\text{-C}^5\) (where C4-C5 is the ethyl group \(\text{-CH}_2\text{CH}_3\)). Thus, it is a 3-methylpentanoate.
- Name: hexyl 3-methylpentanoate.
- Family: Ester.
Name compound (c)
- Structure: \(\text{CH}_3\text{-CH}_2\text{-CH}_2\text{-CH}(\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_3)\text{-CH}(\text{COOH})\text{-CH}_2\text{-CH}_3\)
- IUPAC naming: The carboxylic acid carbon (\(\text{-COOH}\)) is C1. The longest chain starting from C1 goes through the \(\text{-CH}(\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_3)\) and then the propyl chain: \(\text{C}^1\text{OOH - C}^2\text{H}(\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_3)\text{ - C}^3\text{H}(\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_3)\text{ - C}^4\text{H}_2\text{ - C}^5\text{H}_2\text{ - C}^6\text{H}_3\). This is a hexanoic acid.
- Substituents: At C2 we have an ethyl group. At C3 we have an ethyl group.
- Name: 2,3-diethylhexanoic acid.
- Family: Carboxylic acid.
Name compound (d)
- Structure: \(\text{CH}_3\text{-C(=O)-CH}(\text{CH}_3)\text{-CH}_2\text{-CH}_2(\text{CH}_3)\) (Note: the rightmost part is written as \(\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_2\) with a \(\text{CH}_3\) branch below, making it a pentane chain).
