    Organic Chemistry on Khan Academy: Carbon can form covalent bonds with itself and other elements to create a mind-boggling array of structures. In organic chemistry, we will learn about the reactions chemists use to synthesize crazy carbon based structures, as well as the analytical methods to characterize them. We will also think about how those reactions are occurring on a molecular level with reaction mechanisms. Simply put, organic chemistry is like building with molecular Legos. Let's make some beautiful organic molecules!
    About Khan Academy: Khan Academy offers practice exercises, instructional videos, and a personalized learning dashboard that empower learners to study at their own pace in and outside of the classroom. We tackle math, science, computer programming, history, art history, economics, and more. Our math missions guide learners from kindergarten to calculus using state-of-the-art, adaptive technology that identifies strengths and learning gaps. We've also partnered with institutions like NASA, The Museum of Modern Art, The California Academy of Sciences, and MIT to offer specialized content.

    The Iso has the same extreme in both sides(CH3, in this case).
    The sec happens when the first carbon from the alkyl group bonds with 2 other carbons. That's what I understand. Thanks to Steve for also think a good idea to contribute with education.

    • @MoreParksLessParking
      @MoreParksLessParking 4 года назад +1

      For me it's a higher priority to write the hydrogens out, as they preserve the structural representation of the molecule more accurately if you leave them in. Full blown line diagrams should only be when you want to emphasize the chemically "interesting" parts of a molecule, but for actually visualizing the structure of a molecule they can confuse and mislead you. I often have a habit of forgetting that the hydrogens are still there in addition to all the shown functional groups, when trying to visualize a molecule from just its line diagram.

    Is this common naming only specific to butyl groups or can it also be used for branches that contain more than 4 carbons? Seems like this example and in some other videos its always a butyl group making it seem like its either only specific to that type of group or maybe the branches don't get bigger than 4 carbons... please explain :)

    @daphnenelson5570 3 года назад

    The whole "sec", "tert" and "iso" prefixes as explained in the video for butyl groups, don't seem to have the same meaning on propyl groups, am I right? Very confusing. For example, isopropyl, it's not attached to the first carbon on the chain, or, it's not attached to 1 other carbon it's a secondary group. But with isobutyl, it is a primary structure or attached to one other carbon.

  • @SEKajsa

    because instead of putting 1,1 if you are lazy since it´s a cyclocompounds it doesn´t matter where you put it so you could just name it dimethylethylcyclopentane I think that´s what he meant :)

    Why must you include the "1,1" on "dimethylethyl"? Surely it's not required because it cannot be on Carbon-2 since then it would be "2-methylpropyl" and would be "iso-" instead of the "tert-" structure? So, is it essential to include the "1,1" even though it's an obvious given?

  • @ter_park

    • @ritankarmondal0411
      @ritankarmondal0411 2 года назад

      In this case since the ring and the substituent both have 5 Cs, the ring is treated as the parent chain. If the substituent would have more C's than the ring we would have preferred the substituent as the main chain.

    @jacobdalby1105 9 лет назад

    the common naming doesn't make sense here, or else it just didn't get defined properly.
    This seems to confuse alot of people down the comment section.
    The sec-butylcyclopentane and the iso-butylcyclopentane. Does not have as you say 2 and 3 connections. Did you swap them around by mistake? that would make sense. Since the one you call; S-butyl has the first carbon connected to 3 carbons and 1 Hydrogen. the Iso is only connected to 2 not 3 as you say. The tert is connected to 4 carbons -- as you say.
    It only makes sense if i assume u swapped them by mistake. So the Isobutyl is really the secbutyl, the secbutyl is really the isobutyl and the tertbutyl is really the tertbutyl.
    Correct me if im wrong.

    • @xRawesomex
      @xRawesomex 8 лет назад

      +Jacob Dalby the secbutyl group has two carbons connecting directly to the carbon that's connected to the cyclopentane. The isobutyl group has only one carbon connecting directly to the carbon that's connected to the cyclopentane. That's the reasoning.
