Nomenclature alkyl halides

Other examples of alkyl halide nomenclature are given in Figure 7.3. 

Model 3 Naming Haloalkanes (alkyl halide nomenclature)... 

While developing the connections between structure reaction and mechanism we will also extend the fundamentals of lUPAC nomenclature to functional group families beginning with alcohols and alkyl halides... 

The lUPAC rules permit alkyl halides to be named m two different ways called func twnal class nomenclature and substitutive nomenclature In functional class nomencla ture the alkyl group and the halide (fluoride chloride bromide or iodide) are desig nated as separate words The alkyl group is named on the basis of its longest continuous chain beginning at the carbon to which the halogen is attached... 

Substitutive nomenclature of alkyl halides treats the halogen as a halo—(fluoro chloro bromo or lodo ) substituent on an alkane chain The carbon chain is numbered m the direction that gives the substituted carbon the lower number... 

IUPAC Nomenclature of Alkanes, Alkyl Halides, and Alcohols... 

Common names for simple haloalkanes are accepted by the IUPAC => alkyl halides (radicofunctional nomenclature). 

For the nomenclature for ethers and alkyl halides the functional group is considered to be a substituent of the main alkane chain. The functional group is numbered and named as a substituent ... 

There are two ways of naming alkyl halides. The systematic (IUPAC) nomenclature treats an alkyl halide as an alkane with a halo- substituent Fluorine is fluoro-, chlorine is chloro-, bromine is bromo-, and iodine is iodo-. The result is a systematic haloalkane name, as in 1-chlorobutane or 2-bromopropane. Common or trivial names are constructed by naming the alkyl group and then the halide, as in isopropyl bromide. This is the origin of the term alkyl halide. Common names are useful only for simple alkyl halides, such as the following ...
