Naming Organic Compounds Explained | A Level Chemistry Organic Nomenclature Masterclass Description: Hello and welcome! In this A Level Chemistry masterclass, we explore naming organic compounds using IUPAC rules. Designed for Year 1 students, this video covers everything you need to confidently name organic molecules in exams and coursework. You'll learn how to: Name compounds from displayed, structural, and skeletal formulas Identify roots, prefixes, suffixes, and functional groups Name alkanes, alkenes, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, amines, nitriles, and halogenoalkanes Handle branched chains, multiple functional groups, and functional group precedence This video focuses on the most common functional groups for Year 1 Chemistry. Year 2 nomenclature, stereochemistry, and isomerism will be covered in upcoming videos. By the end of this masterclass, you’ll be able to: Identify the longest carbon chain in any molecule Apply IUPAC naming rules to simple and complex organic compounds Correctly place functional groups and branches in names Name molecules containing multiple or competing functional groups Timestamps: 0:00 Introduction 0:06 Overview of Nomenclature 0:56 IUPAC Naming Rules Explained 1:16 Structure of Names: Root, Suffix, Prefix 5:09 Alkanes and Simple Molecules 6:35 Alkenes and Numbering Double Bonds 9:51 Alkenes with Branches 14:36 Complex Branched Alkanes 24:20 Halogenoalkanes Naming 29:04 Alcohols Naming 32:02 Aldehydes and Ketones 34:49 Carboxylic Acids 36:28 Amines 37:53 Nitriles 41:12 Order of Precedence for Functional Groups 45:15 Multiple Functional Groups 48:36 Compounds with Two Identical Functional Groups Access All A Level Chemistry Videos: 📄 Links to all A Level Chemistry videos: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1s3I5...
