Compounds with two car boxyl groups, as illustrated by entries 10 through 12, are distinguished by the suffix -dioic acid or -dicarboxylic acid as appropriate. The final -e in the base nane of the alkane is retained. 

Aliphatic dicarboxylic acids are named by simply adding the suffix -dioic acid to the root name. The root name comes from the longest carbon chain containing both carboxyl groups. Numbering starts at the end closest to a substituent. 

Many compounds containing two carboxy groups are also known. In the lUPAC system, diacids are named by adding the suffix -dioic acid to the name of the parent alkane. The three simplest diacids are most often identified by their common names, as shown. 

If a carboxylic acid contains a carboxyl group at each end of the chain, the suffix -dioic acid is added to the name of corresponding alkane. 

Replace the -e ending of the parent alkane with the suffix -otc acid. If there are two carboxyl groups, the suffix -dioic acid is used. 

Aliphatic dicarboxylic acids are given the suffix -dioic acid in the lUPAC system. For example,... 

Diacids, compounds containing two carboxylic acid moieties, are named with the suffix dioic acid, for example ... 

Name dicarboxylic acids by adding the suffix dioic acid to the name the parent alkane that contains both carboxylic acid groups. Number the chain starting with the carboxyl carbon closest to the first substituent. 

For lUPAC names replace the -e of the corresponding alkane with -oic acid thus, CH CHjCOOH is propanoic acid. The C s are numbered the C of COOH is numbered 1. C HjCOOH is benzoic acid. Dicarboxylic acids contain two COOH groups and are named by adding the suffix -dioic and the word acid to the name of the longest chain with the two COOH s. 

Unsubstituted aliphatic dicarboxylic acids. HOOC (CH ) COOH. are most often referred to by their trivial names for n = 2 to 10 (Table I). Higher homologucs are named using the IUPAC system by adding the suffix dioic to the parent hydrocarbon. 

The suffix dioic is used if the acid contains two carboxyl groups. 

The systematic approach for naming dicarboxylic acids (alkanes with carboxylic acids on either end) is the same as for carboxylic acids, except that the suffix is -dioic acid. Common name Nomenclature of dicarboxylic acids is aided by the acronym OMSGAP (Om s Gap), where each letter stands for the first letter of the first seven names for each dicarboxylic acid, starting from the simplest. 

Dicarboxylic acids are named by adding the suffix -dioic, followed by the word o/dd, to the name of the carbon chain that contains both carboxyl groups. Because the two carboxyl groups can be only at the ends of the parent chain, there is no need to number them. Following are lUPAC names and common names for several important aliphatic dicarboxylic acids ... 

To indicate the presence of two COOH units, the oic acid suffix of a mono-carboxylic acid is replaced with dioic acid. Oxalic acid therefore becomes 1,2-ethanedioic acid and malonic acid becomes 1,3-propanedioic acid. Similarly, succinic acid is 1,4-butanedioic acid and glutaric acid is 1,5-pentanedioic acid. With two carboxylic units, the dicarboxylic acids with five or fewer carbons have reasonable water solubility, reflecting their highly polar nature and ability to hydrogen bond. As the nrunber of methylene groups increases, the solubility in water decreases as expected. 

In the lUPAC systematic nomenclature, the final e of the parent alkane is dropped, the suffix oic is added, and the separate word acid is added. Diacids are named similarly, except that the suffix is dioic, and the final e is not dropped. Cyclic acids are named as cycloalkanecarboxylic acids. Tahle 17.1 shows some common mono-and diacids along with some of their physical properties and common names, many of which are stfil used.
