Let's name some acid chlorides. So guys, acid Cloyd's are not hard to name, but it's important to know that the process that you use is going to change a little bit, depending on whether you're trying to do a common or an AIPAC name. Since there's a few rules associate with this, I think the best way to learn it is just to draw an example. So let's go ahead and say that we had a three carbon acid chloride and we're trying to figure out both the common name and the AIPAC name for it. I'm actually gonna move this over so I have more room to right. Okay, perfect. So let's go ahead and start off with the common name. So the rules for the common name are that remember that the common name starts from the car books like acid you're basically imagining. Imagine this was car books like acid. Now, how What would be the prefix that you do? What would be the root name? I'm sorry. So if it's three carbons, we know that would be probiotic acid, right? So let's actually write that down. You're gonna need your racer because we're gonna erase it, But you could just write it for now. Pro bionic acid. So why am I writing this? This would be the name of the molecule if it was a carb Oxalic acid. Right. But it's not. It's an acid chlorides. So how do we change it? Well, for a common name, you replace the IQ ending IQ acid ending with ill chloride. So that means I would then a race acid and IQ, and I would replace it with prop Anele chloride. See? So we're done. All you have to do is you just take your common name and you just take out the ending and replace it with ill chloride. You're done now for the AIPAC. The process is completely different. Because remember that the AIPAC root for this wouldn't be probiotic acid. It would actually just be propane, right, Because it's a three carbon chain. 123 So, I mean, in the AIPAC name, we're starting from propane. So you would say I'm going to start from propane, and how am I gonna change it? Well, similar toe AIPAC rules. You take out the e and you add Suffolk's but the Suffolk's that we're gonna add is a little different. We're gonna actually add an extra Oh, to it. So instead of being ill chloride, we're gonna end with oil chloride. It actually sounds like motor oil. That's how you pronounce it. So we would erase the E. And we would say, propane oil chloride and guys, This is just a naming convention that's very widely used. So it's something that you should be aware of. Alright, cool. So, in terms of the general names for acid chlorides, remember that for common names, you're basically using your Alcon oil. It's Alcon, ill chloride. And for your AIPAC name, it's Alcan Oil chloride. All right. Not hard. It all just a little bit tricky. Okay, cool. So go ahead and move on to the next set of questions and see if you can name and draw the following structures.

Okay, guys. So everything that applied to car oxalic acids still applies thio these acid chlorides. So if you're naming it with common, you have to use Greek symbols, you know, something like that. Okay, so let's do the AIPAC first. I know you're thinking. Oh, damn. I forgot that. Okay, so I pack. So two carbons actually gave that one to you, man. Too easy. Damn. So, um, we've gotten ethanol oil chloride, and this substitute want would be a two hydroxy. Right? So let's put that all together. Two hydroxy eth in oil chloride. Now, guys, one little minor thing that you might be thinking is Hey, Johnny, I remember from or go one that we used to always give the alcohol priority, But guys, those days were over. Okay? Carbon deals in general, any carbon, you're always gonna get priority over and alcohol. Okay. Common name. So the common name is gonna be again are a Seattle chloride. But it's gonna be what it's gonna be. Alfa hydroxy a c tall chloride. Okay, very good. So because this is the Alfa Carbon. So, guys, I made that one way too easy. So let's see how you feel about the next one. Go ahead and see if you can draw that molecule. By the way, if you can't recognize that symbol, that is not a why. That is a gamma. Okay, Okay, so go for it.

All right. So I'm gonna draw my valuable chloride, which is gonna be, ah, five carbon chain with a chlorine on it. Okay, then I've got Gamma Ethel. So that means that I'm going to go Alfa Beta camera and place unethical group in that position. And that would be the way that you draw that compound. Okay. Awesome guys. So not too bad. Let's move on to the next topic.
