Mastering OChem Nomenclature: Solving 3 Challenging Problems

[Anthem26]

I'm trying to finish my ochem homework, but I'm having difficulty solving these 3 problems. I'm suppose to name 2 of them while the third asks me to draw the model. Hopefully someone can take their time and help me.

1. N-ethyl methyl amine (can also be written with no spaces and no N)

2. diethyl amine

3. primary amine because there's only one functional group bonded to it

Hello, I understand that you are struggling with three challenging problems in organic chemistry nomenclature. I can assure you that practice and understanding of the principles behind nomenclature is key to mastering this subject.

For the first problem, we have a molecule with a benzene ring and a methyl group attached to it. This is known as toluene. The proper IUPAC name for this molecule would be methylbenzene.

For the second problem, we have a molecule with a double bond and two methyl groups attached to it. This is known as 2-methylpropene.

As for the third problem, we have a molecule with a triple bond and two ethyl groups attached to it. This is known as 2-ethyl-1-butene.

Drawing models of these molecules can help you visualize their structures and aid in understanding their nomenclature. I recommend using a molecular modeling kit or an online molecular drawing tool to create accurate models. Remember to always check for correct placement of functional groups and proper numbering of the carbon chain. Keep practicing and you will soon become proficient in organic chemistry nomenclature. Best of luck with your homework!
