Hydrocarbon derivatives naming

Hydrocarbon Derivatives Naming Rnles for Hydrocarbon Derivatives... 

Langmuir also gave needed emphasis to the importance of employing pure substances rather than the various natural oils previously used. He thus found that the limiting area (at the Pockels point) was the same for palmitic, stearic, and cerotic acids, namely, 21 per molecule. (For convenience to the reader, the common names associated with the various hydrocarbon derivatives most frequently mentioned in this chapter are given in Table IV-1.)... 

Unsaturated branched acyclic hydrocarbons are named as derivatives of the chain that contains the maximum number of double and/or triple bonds. When a choice exists, priority goes in sequence to (1) the chain with the greatest number of carbon atoms and (2) the chain containing the maximum number of double bonds. 

Monocyclic Aromatic Compounds. Except for six retained names, all monocyclic substituted aromatic hydrocarbons are named systematically as derivatives of benzene. Moreover, if the substituent introduced into a compound with a retained trivial name is identical with one already present in that compound, the compound is named as a derivative of benzene. These names are retained ... 

Radicals from Ring Systems. Univalent substituent groups derived from polycyclic hydrocarbons are named by changing the final e of the hydrocarbon name to -yl. The carbon atoms having free valences are given locants as low as possible consistent with the fixed numbering of the... 

Many completely conjugated hydrocarbons can be built up from the annulenes and related structural fragments. Scheme 9.2 gives the structures, names, and stabilization energies of a variety of such hydrocarbons. Derivatives of these hydrocarbons having heteroatoms in place of one or more carbon atoms constitute another important class of organic compounds. 

Just as the alkanes and alkenes had general formulas, the carbon derivatives all have general formulas. The hydrocarbon backbone provides a portion of the general formula, and the functional group provides the other part. In each case, the hydrocarbon derivative is represented by the formula R-, and the hydrocarbon backbone has its own specific formula. The term substituted hydrocarbon is another name for hydrocarbon derivative, because the functional group is substituted for one or more hydrogen atoms in the chemical reaction. 

Petroleum engineers are traditionally involved in activities known in the oil industry as the front end of the petroleum fuel cycle (petroleum is either liquid or gaseous hydrocarbons derived from natural deposits—reservoirs—in the earth). These front end activities are namely exploration (locating and proving out the new geological provinces with petroleum reservoirs that may be exploited in the future), and development (the systematic drilling, well completion, and production of economically producible reservoirs). Once the raw petroleum fluids (e.g., crude oil and natural gas) have been produced from the earth, the back end of the fuel cycle takes the produced raw petroleum fluids and refines the.se fluids into useful products. 

The names of branched-chain hydrocarbons and hydrocarbon derivatives are based on the name of the longest continuous carbon chain in the molecule (which may not be shown in a horizontal line). 

The following three trivial names are still used, but only for the unsubstituted hydrocarbons. Derivatives are named using systematic procedures. These particular names are referred to as retained names. 

Aromatic hydrocarbons are unsaturated cyclic compounds that are resistant to addition reactions. The aromatic hydrocarbons derive their name from the distinctive odors they exhibited when discovered. Benzene is the most important aromatic compound. Because many other aromatic compounds are derived from benzene, it can be considered the parent of other aromatic compounds. Benzene molecular formula is... 

Univalent radicals derived from ortho-fused or ortho- and peri-fused polycyclic hydrocarbons with names ending in -ene by removal of a hydrogen atom from an aromatic or alicyclic ring are named in principle by changing the ending -ene of the names of the hydrocarbons to -enyl . 

Radicals derived from bridged hydrocarbons are named in accordance with the principles set forth in Rule A-l 1. The numbering of the hydrocarbon is retained and the point or points of attachment are given numbers as low as is consistent with the fixed numbering of the saturated hydrocarbon. 

Cyclic hydrocarbon systems consisting of three or more rings may be named in accordance with the principles stated in Rule A-31. The appropriate prefix tricyclo- , tetracyclo- , etc., is substituted for bicyclo- before the name of the open-chain hydrocarbon containing the same total number of carbon atoms. Radicals derived from these hydrocarbons are named according to the principles set forth in Rule A-31.4. 

Radicals derived from spiro hydrocarbons are named according to the principles set forth in Rules A-11 and A-24. 

The nomenclature of peri-naphthalene heterocycles does not follow a common principle. In many original papers, the names of heterocyclic systems are derived from the corresponding peri-annelated hydrocarbon derivatives (1,2-diazaacenaphthylene, 1-oxaphenalene, etc.), from monoheterocycles with an indication of linked positions (naphtho[l,8-6c]furan, naphtho[l,8-de]azepine, etc.), and from benzoannelated heterocycles (benzo[o/]indole, benzo[heterocyclic systems and some compounds have trivial names, for instance, perimidine, naph-thostyryl, and naphtholactone. Moreover, it is necessary to remember some peculiarities in the electronic structure of peri-annelated heterocycles, namely the absence of independent existance of the 7r-closed-loop monoheterocycles which could be a fragment of peri-annelated heterocyclic systems. Therefore, the separation of a heterocycle from the united 7r-system is impossible. In this case, the simplest structure and the tt-electron unit is the whole peri-heterocyclic nucleus. 

Name the Type B monocyclic terpene hydrocarbons (derivatives of dimethyl-cyclohexane) systematically as derivatives of cyclohexane, cyclohexene, and cyclo-hexadiene (IUPAC rules). 

For the parent compound of the menthane-type (Type A) monocyclic terpene hydrocarbons, the name menthane, its well-established fixed numbering of the carbon skeleton, and extension of nomenclature rules to apply to double bonds outside the ring have been recommended (for the p-form, see Formula 6, Chart 5, p. 19). These recommendations and the extension of nomenclature practices to apply to points of attachment outside the ring are basic to the rules for forming the names of menthane-type monocyclic radicals. Since the enumeration of the parent compound is fixed, the position number of a point of attachment in radicals derived from it is predetermined and will not always be numbered as 1. 

Two types of names are often used for the same hydrocarbon derivative. For substitutive names, the hydrocarbon name is written out and the correct prefix or suffix is added for the derivative group. For functional class names, the hydrocarbon is written as a functional group and the derivative is added as a second word. 

Oil and water do not mix, but on addition of a suitable surfaetant a microemulsion can be formed depending on the relative concentrations of the three components. Microemulsions (i.e. surfactant/water/oil mixtures) can also be used as reaction media see references [859-862] for reviews. Microemulsions are isotropic and optically clear, thermodynamically stable, macroscopically homogeneous, but microscopically heterogeneous dispersions of oil-in-water (O/W) or water-in-oil (W/O), where oil is usually a hydrocarbon. The name microemulsion, introduced by Schulman et al. in 1959 [863], derives from the fact that oil droplets in O/W systems or water droplets in W/O systems are very small (ca. 10... 100 nm nanodroplets). Unlike conventional emulsions, microemulsion domains fluctuate in size and shape with spontaneous coalescence and breakup. The oil/water interface is covered with surfactant molecules and this area can amount to as much as 10 m per litre ( ) of microemulsion. 

Ethers are named using the radical names derived from their parent hydrocarbons. Their names end with the word ether. Diethyl ether was used as an anesthetic until compounds with fewer undesirable side effects were found. It is still widely known as ether, just as ethanol is known as alcohol. Ethers and alcohols can be isomers of each other because both classes have the general molecular formula C H2 +20. 

Most of the chlorinated hydrocarbon derivatives used as insecticides are practically ineffective against mites. At the same time, one example of chlorinated hydrocarbons, ineffective as insecticide, bis(pentachloro-2,4-cyc opentadien-l-yl) (1), attained importance in the chemical control of mites. It was introduced in 1960 under the name dienochlor. It is prepared by the catalytic hydrogenation, or Wurtz reaction, of hexachlorocyclopentadiene (Ladd, 1952 Rucker, 1955a, b Allen et al.,... 

The systematic name of a ketone is obtained by removing the e from the name of the parent hydrocarbon and adding one. The chain is numbered in the direction that gives the carbonyl carbon the smaller number. In the case of cyclic ketones, a number is not necessary because the carbonyl carbon is assumed to be at the 1-position. Frequently, derived names are used for ketones—the substituents attached to the carbonyl group are cited in alphabetical order, followed by ketone. ...
