    Are you struggling with organic chemistry? Download my free ebook "10 Secrets To Acing Organic Chemistry" here: leah4sci.com/orgo-ebook/
    This video is Part 10 in the Naming Organic Compounds series
    This nomenclature tutorial video takes you through the IUPAC rules naming compounds containing an OH as the highest priority functional group. Examples includes simple alcohols, substituted alcohols and even diols
    Many students struggle with naming because they attempt to come up with the entire name at once and often wind up missing a piece or two. After this series you won't have that problem anymore
    Note: The correct name for the structure at 4:25 is 3-penten-2-ol. You may drop the final "e" when naming an alkene that is not the highest priority functional group on the molecule.

    so useful. I found naming organic compound boring before, but after watching your video, my interest has been greatly arounsed. Thank You!!!!

      It's a compliment - overall you're videos are the best because of your timing, organization and professionalism. I've (likely) literally gone through every science channel on youtube that has orgo content and yours is the best by far, it presents the information in a clear and concise way such that not only is it easy to understand, but if you address a concept that is key to the current video but not addressed in this one, you quickly reference the other video and move on - that way everyone is taken care of. That and you don't talk down to us - that's big. A lot of channels try to be flashy or use a tone that feels like I'm being talked down to - I'm not a child, I just want to learn. We appreciate your efforts and thank you. I'm saving up for bootcamp to not only learn but show my gratitude.

    (5:09) how did you determine the information that would go in the brackets? I was slightly confused how you determined the number of unique carbons on the chain.

    • @azizalgafari8212
      @azizalgafari8212 2 года назад

      C outside the first cycle bridge head (lower numbers) then C outside 2nd cycle (higher number) then C inside the bridge head

    At 5:12 you start describing the unique carbons on each of the rings. Why are carbons numbers 3, 6, and 7 considered unique?

    • @Leah4sci
      @Leah4sci  5 месяцев назад

      Perhaps unique is not the right word. What I meant to say here is carbons on that side of the ring not being shared by another ring

  • @dianaaulov9899
    @dianaaulov9899 2 года назад +1

    Why isn’t the 4 a bridgehead carbon? In 5:47

    • @Leah4sci
      @Leah4sci  2 года назад +1

      Carbon 4 is a bridgehead carbon. Remember, in the molecular name, the numbers in the brackets specify how many carbons are unique to each ring portion. Those numbers are not locants.

  • @laucheukming5580
    @laucheukming5580 3 года назад

    I was wondering whether you made a mistake on counting the first carbon at 2:11? Since the alcohol has the higher priority than alkane, therefore, I think that you should count the first carbon from the left?
    At 4:25, I think that it should be 3-penten-2-ol because I can search nth on the internet when I type 3-pentene-2-ol

    • @Leah4sci
      @Leah4sci  3 года назад +1

      Thanks for watching and asking! There is not a mistake in the example at 2:11. The longest continuous carbon chain is three carbons in length. The alcohol can only exist on carbon 2, no matter which direction you begin counting in. At 4:25, I will concede your point. That “e” might only be used at the end of a name and not in the middle of one. Since the highest priority functional group is an alcohol, we can drop the final “e” when naming the alkene group.

  • @FM-uz6fs
    @FM-uz6fs 10 лет назад

    for the one where you got 3-pentene-2-ol, can you also write pent-3-ene-2-ol and also can u elaborate on when to drop e and when not to? Thanks

    • @Leah4sci

      The correct name for the structure at 4:25 is 3-penten-2-ol. You may drop the final "e" when naming an alkene that is not the highest priority functional group on the molecule.

  • @vongaimuswinu2326
    @vongaimuswinu2326 4 года назад

    Other sources say it’s 3-penten-2-ol.. Which is the correct one at 4:25

    • @bellefeu4933
      @bellefeu4933 4 года назад

      depends on how strict your prof is. technically, 3-penten-2-ol is more correct, to follow a constant rule of always dropping the anE.

    • @Leah4sci
      @Leah4sci  3 года назад

      Thanks for asking, that “e” might only be used at the end of a name and not in the middle of one. Since the highest priority functional group is an alcohol, we can drop the final “e” when naming the alkene group.

    • @Leah4sci

      Then it becomes a substituent with the hydroxy prefix

  • @sarthakvijay214
    @sarthakvijay214 8 лет назад

    Leah, wouldn't it be 3-penten-2-ol, instead of 3-pentene-2-ol; you may google it!

    • @Leah4sci
      @Leah4sci  5 месяцев назад

      Yes, the correct name for the structure at 4:25 is 3-penten-2-ol. You may drop the final "e" when naming an alkene that is not the highest priority functional group on the molecule. Thanks for catching it!
