All organic compounds consist of carbon and hydrogen.

Many also contain oxygen and nitrogen

Other elements may also be present.Phosphorous, halogens and/or metals

Most compounds are composed of carbon chains bonded with hydrogen

Aliphatic Hydrocarbons

Alkanes – All single bond between carbons

(name ends in “ane”)

Alkenes – contains double bonds between carbons

(name ends in “ene”)

Alkynes – contains triple bonds between carbons

(name ends in “yne”)

Page 11: Basic Organic Chemistry

Naming hydrocarbons starts with selecting the longestChain (even around corners).
