Naming Carboxylic Acids - Organic Chemistry IUPAC Naming by Leah4sci

[@yushiliang5694]

Hey Leah, I just want to say thank you sooooooo much for your videos. They really helped me this year with organic chemistry. You are honestly so gifted at teaching this stuff, and I don't know what I would do without the extra assistance you provide on youtube. Keep doing what you're doing!

[@Leah4sci]

Wow, you are so very welcome! Thank you for your kind words!

[@farjanajamal8802]

really i have seen many vedios....but ur teaching is somethig different ...u r so confinent in what u teach ...dat amazes me

[@Leah4sci]

Happy to help!

[@premaravi4925]

and the prefix for aldehydes when their priority is exceeded is formyl not oxo , oxo or keto is a prefix for ktones

[@nourzawa8704]

I should write formyl instead of oxo bec aldehyde are higher than ketone

[@AdmatHakodesh]

no, formyl is used only when the aldehyde is a substituent (pretty rare). When the aldehyde is part of the parent chain, albeit not the highest priority, it is named oxo.

[@salahmohamed4591]

Thanks for the effort, but I guess the IUPAC for the structure at 3:12 is incomplete . Since we have a double bond between C 3 and C 4 we need to determine whether it's E or Z direction, and in this case it's E, thanks again.

[@Leah4sci]

I didn't cover E/Z in this video, chose to focus on just the basics but you are correct, it is E

[@leahguy9929]

Thank you Leah!! I can now name carboxylic acids more confidently!! Much appreciated.

[@Leah4sci]

Awesome!!!

[@mwansahtyller9002]

you are the best when it comes to organic chemistry you make it look simple ❤...

[@Leah4sci]

Wow, thank you!

[@josefbrianramil2752]

Your videos are simple, effective and amazing. Thank you so much, you're definitely a life-saver! :)

[@Leah4sci]

You're so welcome, and thank you for your kind words!

[@sadia4175]

Leah,You are a born teacher, AWESOME.

[@Leah4sci]

Thank you so much!

[@charlesdale2600]

5- chloro- 2- methyl - 3 - hexenoic acid This name should have an (E) in it too right? The substituents on both sides of the double bond are in the trans position.

[@Leah4sci]

I'm sorry, but I don't offer tutoring through KZbin comments. For more help with naming, I recommend joining the orgo study hall: leah4sci.com/join

[@DollyDomDom]

My first Orgo test is this Friday and Leah you definitely saved me!

[@Leah4sci]

Yay!!!

[@dannyawesome63]

Leah, THANKS SO MUCH! Your videos have gotten me through my first ochem class and now i am finishing up my last ochem class during the summer!!

[@Leah4sci]

You're so very welcome, happy to help!

[@maureendona6842]

YOUR VIDEOS ARE AMAZING! you're a lifesaver.

[@Leah4sci]

Aww thank you!

[@lilitxx8478]

I was so completely lost and hopeless, because my professor just reads off p.p. slides, and can i just say , WOW! you are an amazing teacher! Thank You!!!

[@Leah4sci]

Ouch, that would be horrible for learning! So happy I was able to help clear things up for you.

[@johnl3548]

Hey leah for the molecule at 4:24 would it incorrect to name it as 2-methyl-1,5-dipentanoic acid? ty for all the help!

[@kusalseven3563]

yeah,carbonyl could be attach to 3rd or 4th carbon

[@Leah4sci]

You don't put numbers for carboxylic acids because they are assumed to be at the ends of the chain

[@eman4159]

do you have a series for carboxylic acid reactions?

[@Leah4sci]

You can find what I have so far on my free syllabus guide: leah4sci.com/syllabus

[@kashishgoel2831]

At 3:27 should it not be "5-choloro-2-methyl-hex-3-en oic acid" or can we mix the word root with primary suffix?

[@Leah4sci]

Both are correct. In a situation like this you can pull the number out to the front of the first name for hex-3-ene or 3-hexene

[@MizzSmilezz]

Yay! sounds great! :) im looking forward to your next videos, they really help me understand. THANK YOU!

[@Leah4sci]

You're very welcome, happy to share!

[@darshiess]

i love all your videos, really saved my butt in the chem final exam I had, but at 6:20 wouldnt it be a hex since there are 6 carbons?

[@cassied9327]

Very very late reply but I thought I'd leave it in case others have the same question. At 6:20 the ring has five carbons so it is cyclopentane. That is like the parent chain. The last carbon is part of the carboxylic acid coming off of the ring and is covered by the carboxylic acid suffix. Leaving it cyclopentanoic acid or cyclopentanecarboxylic acid

[@Leah4sci]

The prefix comes from the number of carbons in the parent chain. In this case the ring only has 5 carbons for a cyclopent, the 6th carbon is a substituent

[@moonlight9108]

at 6:22 why did you name it cyclopentane "carboxylic acid"? Can it be cyclopentanoic acid?

[@strongbodystrongmiind]

moonlight9108 yes it can . she’s just using a diff naming system

[@Leah4sci]

cyclopentanoic acid is a shortened version of the more correct cyclopentane carboxylic acid

[@noona17carat]

Hi. thank you for your videos. I struggles much in organic chemistry and watching video tutorials help me to understand more about a certain topic.. Keep posting videos that will help many people. Once again thank you ^_^

[@Leah4sci]

I'm so glad I was able to help you, you're so welcome!

[@NabeelAhmed-cv4wu]

[@ahmedheriher3242]

I want to get a comprehensive book for naming organic compounds , can you help me please ?

[@Leah4sci]

I have orgo recommendations here: leah4sci.com/5-must-have-organic-chemistry-resources/

[@krishandatta3336]

what is the priority order of substituents once the functional group is decided

[@Leah4sci]
