Ether naming and introduction | Organic chemistry | Khan Academy

[@xlADAMS13]

I would pay so much money to take an Org-chem class from Khan. So much! Very helpful, thanks a lot.

[@jeremiah160]

Sal, I've been a student of yours for a couple years now and I appreciate all your videos so much!!! I believe you made a mistake, it should be "methyl isopropyl ether" because the "iso" prefix does not count towards the alphabetical order.

[@RelentlessHearts]

Thank you so much! currently taking an online biochem class, and being able to see you work this out has been life-saving. thank you again.

[@PrasannaKumar-zx7gr]

Thank you for teaching..now a days teaching become free because of you started this way first..god bless you

[@fortuna9114]

Pretty funny watching this when you're german but gladly the names are very similar to our german ones.. I couldn't find a german vid for that theme at all but you're doin a great job! I understood everything

[@nolanmitchell7319]

Same with French

[@lmdlmd3]

Khan- you should clarify that ethers can do hydrogen bonds with water. They just can't do hydrogen bonding with other ethers.

(1:00) ^o^ The Emoji Movie won't stop taunting me with its existence.

[@cantthinkofausername5642]

lol

[@farhaan5756]

Thanks a million .

[@imstudying1259]

thank you so much... tomorrow i have a test and it helped a lot😂

[@RabidREDGirl]

2-ethoxyethane doesn't exist because you would start numbering by making the group the smallest number it can be. So it would be 1 since there is only 2 carbons on that parent ethane chain.

[@AnthonyDengMadhier-lm2rf]

Thanks u for well explanation

[@hpandza1]

Thank you so much, i didn't understand anything before this video. Now it seems so easy. Brilliant.

[@Sakokuruto]

I have a final tomorrow, and I think this just saved me from a lot of derping.

[@biochem86]

actually it does...he wrote in the first video that he used the iso name that he made a mistake. and not just he said it its true. the prefixes that refer to the number it substituted by like sec-, and tert- DO NOT count but iso- is part of the name so it does count.

[@dirkndh126]

iupac actually looks like tupac lol

I'm you

[@thjim3157]

Are you alive?

[@MRDIRK96]

⁠@@thjim3157still breathing air and bleeding red brother

[@cyreneguzman1974]

i really like your videos....they are very helpful to my students to understand better on the nomenclature of organic compounds..hope u can post more...

[@deltaalllog1354]

after struggling in class for a day you just helped me in just 10 min

[@elitsa1992]

love it! (as much as one can love organic chem... But this is a great review for my final coming in two three days

[@chocomonster7054]

this guy saved my life thanks! xD

[@eStalker42]

@AG013 it's still helpfull, becouse u don't need just to learn it to pass test and forget, you need to learn it and to remember)

[@Dig2GoldZ]

Thanks! I have a test next week and this helped me out so much :]

[@thjim3157]

Are you alive?

[@nihayaturrohmah4230]

#44

[@pilike5419]

oh ok, thanks for clarifying that.

[@davesuiter]

Shouldn't it be {methyl isopropyl ether}? I prefer the IUPAC nomenclature even though the common names flow off the tongue easier. I saw this one, Cl-C=O(Cl) , on a test once and was asked to give its common name for bonus points. Answer = Carbonyl Chloride.

[@qwe12353]

Thanks! Very informative.

[@MsPerva]

Thanks a lot 🌹

[@ancle]

Thank you very much, you don't how much this helped me :)

[@osamaemad4212]

Nice video .. thank you so much 💙

[@SoSweetLikeCherry]

At school, we always use the IUPAC method.. and this writing is not what I'm used to :/ Though, it was really helpfull!

[@sagungurung1618]

Thank Sir!

[@amani367]

Y r The best

[@jennyliu1717]

One question: for "isopropylmethylether", where do we put the blank space? Is it actually "isopropylmethyl ether" or "isopropyl methyl ether"?

[@lawliet2263]

You Asian girl?

[@mohitdua8848]

Shouldn't it be "Methyl isopropyl ether"?? Because iso is not included while naming in alphabetical order.

[@biochem86]

iso and cyclo count. iso and cyclo are part of the name... where to you guys get this from (cyclo designates the shape without that wed assume it to be a straight chain....plz read Iupac rules before commenting and stop trying to confuse people

[@emranhamzah8092]

biochem86 i was looking for this comment , thanks alot

[@koadelong9148]

where do the names come from and how do I know which ones to use?? I normally like Khan Academy but this video did not help.

[@curtpiazza1688]

Very well explained! 🎉 😊

[@jazerazo]

thanks a lot!!!

[@thejameskan]

i enjoyed this vid

[@jitentelang8385]

Good teaching

[@mayurbramhane4737]

Superb explained 👍

[@SerramiahmE]

is there a comma between propoxy cyclohexane?

[@eyueldula40]

Keep do it ❤❤

[@smitshah6554]

Nice video

[@vivekkaranjkar3670]

Very nice information

[@TheAshray9]

fantastic job

[@SweRaider1993]

Isn't it just ethoxyethane at 3:30? I mean 2-ethoxyethane and 1-exthoxyethane is the same thing?

[@FDGod99]

ýes,it is

[@SweRaider1993]

2 years later haha... Wow.. Chemistry was a long time ago for me...

[@FDGod99]

+Jon 93 ahahahahahahahahahahaha

[@abhinavkumar4753]

yes

[@paskapoo05]

shouldn't it be sec propyl methyl ether? since its connected to the carbon that is connected to two other carbons?

[@Ayayron_e3]

shouldn't it be 2-ethoxyethane since it's on carbon #2 not the methyl carbon?

[@AcapellaCampbell]

No it shouldn't because that side chain is only two in length and so it doesn't matter what carbon its attached too, it will always be carbon 1. As it can only be 1 in this case, you could actually just say ethoxyethane.

[@TheAttackofthedead]

It reminds me of the Batman logo, so in the exam all I have to remember is dananananananananananananananana Ethers!

[@elefantsnablar]

0:28 omg, a bird!

[@TerranceWho]

Wouldn't 1-ethoxyethane be the same as 2-ethoxyethane?

[@TheJunkieBox]

This video restored 50 MP!

🎉

[@nikkiberwal4042]

Are gonna do the Phenols? Lol what am I even asking, you did this 7 years ago.

[@derbigpr500]

“I don't care for perchloroethylene and I don't like glycol, ether."

[@kingdom7777777]

can someone please tell me why i cant hear any sound? this has happened on a few videos now

[@atheequehasan8852]

Shouldn't esters end with- oate?

[@deadinside7156]

Yes. But esters and ethers are two completely different functional groups so they'd have different naming systems.

[@atheequehasan8852]

Thank you

[@biochem86]

it should not be methyl isopropyl...i comes before m. if anyone says it should they dont know IUPAC

[@giftneokgoete]

biochem86 this is not biochem

[@jemeleinecerbito6366]

how do you name it when there are 2 oxygen in an ether?

[@artiverma7226]

if the two oxygen are together it isn't a ether.

[@raizafarhana3780]

its not ether.. its ester

[@pilike5419]

isnt it 2- ethoxyethane at 3:13

[@NB-xe3qm]

pi like no, you always want to achieve the lowest number. The 1 in this case is actually redundant since the ethoxy group may only be attached to the 1-C-atom, since Ethane is only made up of 2 Carbons.

[@unitaper]

^o^

[@asensniper]

1-ethoxyethane? the "1" is useless and can be omitted ...

[@shrpnss]

i wanna make beats :(

[@BboyScar1]

Lol that first compound looks like a face, ^o^

[@florentinosanchez3969]

Good video
