If a Hydrogen is replaced by a halogen, the
compound is an alkyl halide

Nomenclature of Alkyl Halides

Common name - Name the alkyl group
first, followed by the name of the
halogen expressed as an -ide name

Nomenclature of Alkyl Halides

IUPAC name - The halogen is treated
as a substituent

Common name Name(s) of alkyl
group(s) listed
first followed by
the word “ether”

4
Nomenclature of Ethers

IUPAC name - The smaller alkyl group
is converted to an “alkoxy” name and
used as a substituent

Substituents

If a hydrogen of an alkane is replaced by an
OH group, the compound is an alcohol

Nomenclature of Alcohols

Alcohols are classified as primary,
secondary or tertiary

Common name Name of the Alkyl
group followed by
the word “alcohol”
© Prentice Hall 2001

8
Nomenclature of Alcohols


IUPAC name - The OH group is a site of
reactivity (a functional group)
Functional group is denoted by the suffix, “ol”

IUPAC Nomenclature of
Alcohols
1. Parent Hydrocarbon is the longest
continuous chain that contains the OH
2. Number the chain in direction that gives
functional group the lowest number
3. If both a substituent and a functional
group are present, the functional group
gets the lower number
© Prentice Hall 2001
Chapter 2
10
IUPAC Nomenclature of
Alcohols
4. If the functional group gets the same
number when counted from both
directions, use direction which gives the
substituent the lower number
5. If there is more than one substituent, cite
substituents in alphabetical order

IUPAC Nomenclature of
Alcohols

System is summarized as [Substituent]
[Parent Hydrocarbon] [Functional Group]

Nomenclature of Alkyl
Substituents

If a hydrogen is replaced by an NH2, the
compound is an amine

Chapter 2
13
Nomenclature of Amines


Common name - Name of the Alkyl group(s)
(in alphabetical order) followed by the
syllable “amine”
The whole name is a single word
CH3NH2
methylamine

14
Nomenclature of Amines



IUPAC name - The NH2 group is a site of
reactivity (a functional group)
Functional group is denoted by the suffix,
“amine”
Final “e” of longest alkane group replaced by
suffix “amine”
CH3CH2CH2CH2NH2
1-butanamine
butan-1-amine

15
Nomenclature of Amines

Amines are classified as primary, secondary or
tertiary depending on number of alkyl groups
bonded to the nitrogen
© Prentice Hall 2001
Chapter 2
16
Nomenclature of Amines



In some compounds there are four alkyl groups
bonded to a nitrogen
Such compounds must be salts because it is
impossible to have four bonds to nitrogen
without having developed a positive charge
These are quaternary ammonium salts

Properties of Alkyl Halides,
Alcohols, Ethers, & Amines



Three physical properties are
compared for these classes of
compounds, 1.) boiling point, 2.)
melting point, and 3.) solubility
Boiling point increases as the number
of carbons in a hydrocarbon
increases
As branching increases boiling point
decreases

Properties of Alkyl Halides,
Alcohols, Ethers, & Amines



Boiling point principally is a function of
intermolecular attractions of which there
are basically two kinds: 1.) dipole-dipole,
and 2.) induced dipole-induce dipole
Dipole-dipole interactions stronger
A particularly strong dipole-dipole
interaction is the hydrogen bond (requires
a hydrogen atom bonded to a nitrogen,
oxygen or fluorine atom)

Chapter 2
21
Properties of Alkyl Halides,
Alcohols, Ethers, & Amines


For alkanes, there are only induced
dipole-induced dipole interactions (also
known as van der Waals forces or
London forces)
van der Waals forces are a function of
surface area

Dipole-dipole Interactions


Particularly important for alcohols and amines
Ethers and alkyl halides have dipole moments,
but their intermolecular attractions are not as
strong as hydrogen bonds

Melting Points

Melting point are a function of:


intermolecular attractions
packing in the crystalline state
© Prentice Hall 2001
Chapter 2
27
Solubility

The more carbons that are present, the
less soluble an organic compound is in
water
