Nomenclature of Acid Chlorides

Nomenclature of Acid Chloride

Acid Chloride are the derivatives of carboxylic acids which have –COCl group in it.

Rules:

1.Start numbering from the carbon of –COCl.

2.For naming:  alkane-e+ oyl chloride

image 151 ALL ABOUT CHEMISTRY

In the above compound, five carbon is present.

Thus the name of the compound is- pentane-e + oyl chloride

3.If two -COCl group is present, always keep the -COCl on the two terminals irrespective of the length of the chain.

4.It is named as: Alkanedioyl dichloride

pentanedioyl dichloride
2-propylhexanedioyl dichloride

5.If three -COCl is present, the stem chain holding the -COCl group directly is considered as the parental chain.

6. It is named as : Alkane-x,y,z-tricarbonyl trichloride

7.If three -COCl is present but of it is not directly attached to the stem chain. Then the longest chain holding two -COCl in the terminals are chosen as the parental chain. and the 3rd -COCl is named as : chloro oxo alky
