Molecular Compounds




Molecular compounds are not
bonded by positive and negative
ions
They SHARE electrons
Made of two non-metals
Cannot predict or explain charges
(no charges, because not LOSING
or GAINING electrons – SHARING)
Naming Molecular Compounds
(Type III)


Because there is no way to
neutralize the compounds (like for
ions) we must determine how many
there are another way:
Use PREFIXES
How to tell if it’s Type III




Check the FIRST element – is it a
non-metal?
If YES, it’s a Type III
Name the first element as the
element
Name the second element ending in
“-ide”

Organic Molecules



Carbon based
Naming is based on number of
carbons
Functional groups


Sets of molecules attached to the
carbons
Naming is also based on what
functional groups are where
Alkanes




The simplest organic molecules are
Alkanes.
Carbons are all single bonded to
each other
When not bonded to another
carbon, bonded to a Hydrogen
All alkanes end in -ane
Prefixes

Note that the prefixes pertain to all
types of carbon based molecules
with any types of functional groups
or chains
•Meth
•Eth
•Prop
•But
•Pent
•Hex
•Hept
•Oct
Alkenes and Alkynes


A functional group can be a set of
atoms, or the way they are bonded.
Alkenes


Carbons have double bonds between
them
Alkynes

Carbons have triple bonds between
them
Alkenes and Alkynes

To Name






All alkenes end with –ene.
All alkynes end with –yne
Number the carbons in the longest
chain.
Carbon 1 is at the end of the chain
closest to the first functional group
Put the number that the bond is on,
then the chain length
(some name by putting the number
BEFORE the functional group ending)
Isomer = molecule with SAME
formula but DIFFERENT structure

alcohols?
Alcohols
Some
alcohols
have
common
names
like
glycerol





The longest continuous chain of carbon
atoms gives the root name/prefix.

Specify location of substituent by
numbering carbon atoms in longest
chain.
Substituent often referred to as R or R’
(for second substituent)



Substituent often referred to as R or
R’ (for second substituent)
If more than one alkyl group, use
prefix di, tri, etc. to alkyl name

Alkyl groups
What is the name of the compound?
Hints
•Number Carbon chain from on side closest to first alkyl group
•Single carbon branch called methyl, triple carbon group called
propyl
•More than one branch, use prefixes di-, tri-, etc.
2,4 dimethyl hexane
4 ethyl,5 methyl heptane
Tricky ones!!!
Each END of a line is a
Carbon atom. No H’s
are indicated, but they
are assumed
See if you can name
these.
