Naming hydrocarbons: 5 Rules
1. Identify the longest continuous carbon chain
(the parent chain), which may or may not be
shown in a straight line, and name the chain.

2. Number the carbon atoms in the parent chain from
the end of the nearest substituent
(alkyl group).

3. If only one alkyl group is present, name and locate it
(by number), and attach the number and name to
that of the parent chain.

4. If two or more of the same kind of alkyl group are
present in a molecule, indicate the number with a
Greek numerical prefix (di, tri, tetra, penta…). In
addition, a number specifying the location of each
identical group must be included. These position
numbers, separated by commas, precede the
numerical prefix. Numbers are separated from by
hyphens.

same carbon chain, number each group separately, and
list the names of the alkyl groups in alphabetical order.
