IUPACIUPAC, The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry, is a worldwide organization which was established in1918. It’s main purpose is to aid in chemical sciences as well as their applications with humankind. Organic nomenclature, being a large focus of IUPAC, was established in 1892 when chemists created a list of rules called the Geneva rules. This group of chemists ultimately became IUPAC and is who we should thank for organic nomenclature.

IUPAC Nomenclature RulesIUPAC has 4 fundamental steps when naming organic compounds. The following steps should be considered:
(1) Identify and name the parent chain.
The Parent Chain is usually the single largest continuous chain of carbon atoms within an organic molecule. Its name is dependent on the number of carbon atoms. Its name should be determined by the following prefixes.

IUPAC Nomenclature Rules(2) Identify and name the substituent’s.
The Substituent’s are the chain like projections from the parent chain. The majority of these chains follow the parent chain prefixes. They contain theSuffix “yl” added to the prefix.
NEXT SLIDE
You can see that the longest possible chain is 9 without the incorporation of the
2 carbon chain. This is an example of a substituent.
IUPAC Nomenclature Rules(3) Number the parent chain and assign a locant to each substituent.
A Locant is the carbon number of the substituent attached to the parent chain. It is important that you number a parent chain such that the sum of all locant’s is the least possible. This standard is used to prevent the same molecule being named twice simply by false numbering.
NEXT SLIDE
IUPAC Nomenclature Rules(4) Assemble the substituent's in alphabetical order.
You should only consider the alphabetical order of the parent chain prefix, not additional sub-prefixes (di, tri, etc.) which are attached to the beginning of a prefix for a substituent if there exist more than one on a parent chain of the same type.
Know that you have the 4 fundamental IUPAC steps…Let’s start naming!

AlkanesAlkanes are organic compounds that contain fully saturated parent chains. That is, they are the hydrocarbons that contain the most hydrogen atoms possible (No Double or Triple Bonds). These molecules contain Sigma bonds between all C-C Bonds. When naming alkanes, the suffix “ane” is attached to the parent chain prefix.
NEXT SLIDE
CycloalkanesCycloalkanes are the alkanes which exhibit a ring structure. These molecules will contain the “cyclo” suffix added to the parent chain prefix if the parent chain being considered is the ring structure. The “cyclo” suffix can also be conjoint with the parent chain suffix if considered an Alykl Group (substituent's that are of alkane essence). For the second case, the parent chain will be named as normal alkanes.

Thiols and SulfidesSince Sulphur is under oxygen in the periodic table, it is often the case the oxygen contain organic molecules will have a sulphur derivative. Alcohols, oxygen bound to hydrogen and carbon, is referred to as a THIOL when replaced with sulphur. Add the term “thiol” to the parent chain for SH containing molecules. If other functional groups are present, use “mercapto” as the substituent name. Ethers, oxygen bound to two carbons on either side, is referred to as a SULFIDE when replaced with sulphur. Replace “sulfide” with ether or replace “ylthio” with “oxy” for parent chains and substituents respectively.

Periodic Table TrendsEFFECTIVE NUCLEAR CHARGE
Is the average nuclear charge felt by an individual electron in an atom, taking into consideration the “shielding” effect of inner-shell electrons. Since negatively charged electrons are attracted to the positively charge protons in the nucleus, and at the same time, repelled by other electrons in the atom, we use effective nuclear charge to determine the positive charge on a specific electrons in a specific orbital. A general approach to calculating nuclear charge is using this equation where Z is the total number of protons in an atom and S is the number of electrons in the inner-orbitals of the orbital at interest.

Periodic Table TrendsATOMIC RADII
Is the measure of the size of an element from it’s nucleus to its outer most cloud of electrons. Typically, we see as we go from left to right on the periodic table, Atomic Radii DECREASES since the effective nuclear charge increases and electrons in the outer most orbital are more effectively attracted to the positive nucleus. We also see that if we go from top to bottom of the periodic table Atomic Radii INCREASES since electrons are filling new outer orbitals.
NEXT SLIDE
Periodic Table TrendsIONIZATION ENERGYThe amount of energy required to remove an electron from a gaseous atom (i.e. an atom that is all by itself, not hooked up to others is in a solid or liquid). Typically, the ionization energy INCREASES from left to right on the periodic table since the effective nuclear charge increases, meaning that electrons are more effectively attracted to the nucleus and this will require more energy to be extracted. The ionization energy DECREASES from top to bottom of the periodic table since electrons in the distance from the nucleus to the outermost shell is increased and thus the effective nuclear charge on an electron is weakened due to the distance of attraction.

Is the power of an atom to attract electrons to Itself. Typically, as we go from left to right onthe periodic table we see thatelectronegativity INCREASES because effectivenuclear charge increases and thus an atom’sability to effectively attract electrons is higher.as we go from top to the bottom of theperiodic table we see that electronegativityDECREASES since effective nuclear charge isweakened due to the distance from the nucleus to the further most orbital.

Question Section
NEXT QUESTION ANSWER HINT
(17) ANSWER:
The addition of neutrons within an atom will have NO (by our definition of nuclear charge) effect on the atomic radii. Since Atomic Radii is the distance from the nucleus to the outer most cloud of electrons which is determined by the effective nuclear charge and its ability to effectively attract electrons toward the nucleus, we notice that the addition of neutrons will not affect our nuclear charge and thus will exhibit an identical Atomic Radii.

NEXT QUESTION ANSWER HINT
(18) ANSWER:
i) This answer is TRUE. More electrons in a orbital with the same effective nuclear charge between atoms implies that the electrons are not as tightly bound as they are when more are present.
ii) This answer is FALSE. Ionic oxygen has already received two electrons and is stable. The addition of any more electrons would imply the placement in a new orbital which would result in a electron that has a 0 effective nuclear charge since all inner most electrons pair up with a proton.
iii) This answer is FALSE. Ionic oxygen is stable and thus the amount of energy to remove an electron is more than if oxygen wasn’t stable.

Bond TypeThere are three different types of bonds we will consider:
NONPOLAR COVALENT: The sharing of electrons equally, typically found in identical atoms or atoms with slight electronegativity difference.
POLAR COVALENT: The sharing of electrons unequally due to the effective nuclear charge on one atom having a higher effective pull of electrons than that of the other atom.
IONIC: The taking of electrons from an atom whose effective nuclear charges are on both sides of the “spectrum”, results in atoms being stable and similar to that of their respected noble gas.

Determining Lewis Structure
When determining Lewis Structure of a molecule, we utilize the valence electrons number as the electrons available to form bonds and lone pairs within a molecule. We will also use the octet rule which allows states that all atoms must have 8 electrons around it. Lets determine the Structure of the following Molecule () :
Valence ElectronsC = 2x4 = 8O = 2x6 = 12H = 1x4 = 4 -> 28 available electrons to form bonds and lone pairs
*** Keep in mind of the most common forms of each individual atom…Oxygen “typically” has two lone pairs and two bonds, Carbon “typically” has 4 bonds. Hydrogen “typically” has 1 bond.
NEXT SLIDE
Formal ChargeFormal Charge, is defined as the charge associated with an atom that does not exhibit the appropriate number of valence electrons. In other terms, atoms situated in a molecule all have a standard valence electron value according to their position in the periodic table. If for some reason the number of electrons they are contributing within a molecule is different then their valence electron value, we assign a Formal Charge according to the addition or loss of electrons contributing within a molecule for the particular atom.
In general, we can define Formal Charge as follows:
NEXT SLIDE
Oxygen has 6 valence electrons, in this molecule, oxygen has 3 pairs of lone
pairs (6 valence electrons) + 1 electron contributing in a
sigma bond. Thus, we assign a Formal Charge of -1
Chlorine has 7 valence electrons, in this molecule, chlorine has 2 lone pairs (4
valence electrons) and 2 electrons contributing in
sigma bonds. Thus, we assign a Formal Charge of +1.

ResonanceSuppose we had a divided chamber of gas where one chamber the gas had a higher pressure than the other:
If the slit in the chamber were to be removed, What would happen?
Suppose we were studying the orbital diagram of the following molecule:
Notice the hybridization of the positively charge carbon, The P orbital is empty and all SP² orbitals have been filled by 2 bonds between 2 hydrogen atoms and a bond between a carbon atom.

The hybridizing of a positive carbon.
ResonanceThus, the orbital diagram (if we only draw pi bond) would look like:
If we consider the electron cloud over Carbon 1 to Carbon 2 as the chamber of high pressure and the electron cloud from Carbon 2 to Carbon 3 as the chamber of low pressure, what should we expect?
Some sort of combination between the first structure and this structure:
This is what we will refer to as RESONANCE, and each of these structuresWill be called Resonating Structures.

ResonanceThe problem is with our method of drawing structures, Lewis Diagrams, but since these are so practical and so well known, we must deal with learning resonance via these structures though they should be thought an average , not a equilibrium, among electron pi clouds. Though, we still must abide by standard rules including the Octet Rule. So, we will draw all Resonating Structures as Lewis Diagrams but think of them as an average of all structures combined:
NEXT SLIDE
Rules for Resonance
• Only electrons can move between resonance structures.• The position of the atoms does not change• The only electrons that can participate in resonance are non-
bonding electrons (lone pairs) and pi electrons (double or triple bonds)
• Sigma bonds cannot participate in resonance (cannot break sigma bonds)
• Cannot EXCEED the octet rule for elements in rows 1 and 2 (8 electrons max)
