Hi, good question. It's 3-methylbut-1-ene because once you've started numbering from one end of the carbon you have to just keep counting up as you work along the chain. Since the "ene" is more important we number that as the 1 end and so counting upwards the methyl carbon has to considered to be on the 3rd carbon

Hi sir, at 17:01 (the isomers written in yellow,) why would it not be a chain isomer as it has a different carbon skeleton; the chains are reorganised differently bearing in mind that a cycloalkane is not a functional group? Is this correct?

@chemistrytutor

Жыл бұрын

Good question! I think from the point of view of functional groups, the key thing to consider is that alkenes have the C=C bond and cyclic Alkanes don't. Therefore they're different functional groups. Different FG is always more significant in terms of classification rather than different chains

Good question. The answer is that 1 bromo butane isn't an alkane, it is a halogenoalkane. Halogenoalkanes don't have the same general formula, it varies based on the type of halogen present, and the number of them present as well (it can be more than one). You can still refer to any branches present as 'alkyl' groups (methyl/ethyl etc), but fundamentally its still a Halogenoalkane

At 29:09 what is the square cycloalkane called? Is there a methyl group there and if there is how would you know which carbon atom it’s coming out of to name it? Also (sorry I know I’m asking a lot) but for changing the functional group can certain molecules only be one other type of molecule. Like can carboxylic acids only be changed to esters so can butanoic acid only change it’s functional group to become an ester? Your video is saving my life in a level Chem thank you so much

@chemistrytutor

8 ай бұрын

A ring of 4 would be cyclobutane. With a methyl group sticking out, it would be methyl cyclobutane. When there is only one branch on a cyclic compound there is no need for a number. The carbon the single branch is on is assumed to be carbon number 1

@chemistrytutor

8 ай бұрын

Also, in terms of 1 FG turning into another FG, yes. Carboxylic acids and Esters are the only Single FG isomer. However, you could technically have a molecule with 2 separate FG being an isomer. So a botanic acid could be an isomer of 2-hydroxybutanal with a C=O group and an OH group on 2 different carbon atoms. Not normally that complicated for a levels though

Name them roughly 1-methyl, 2-methyl... this trains you to think about other possible Isomers. 3-methyl?? This is often the same as one methyl (for chain of 5 or 6) so may not be an isomer. Then take a 2nd C off and repeat. Naming them is hugely useful because it stops you using the same one twice. I wouldn't necessarily worry about H if you've simply been asked how many isomers

For organic Chemistry you will need E/Z. Cis/trans has some use in the transition metals topic, but it's normally necessary to learn it. It does depend on what exam board you're doing. For AQA for instance the only mention of cis/trans on the specification is cis platin an anticancer drug. Whereas E/Z isomerism has its own section in the alkenes topic

In 27:07, shouldn't the naming be 2-mehtylbut-1-ene since we start counting from the side which has the least number of carbons?

For the one on the middle on the right? Good thinking but you can only number from one of the ends and then progress up as you move towards the other end.

Good question: 2-ethyl butane in fact doesnt exist, its actually 3-methyl pentane. If you've got a picture of it drawn out you should see that what you've done is bent the hydrocarbon chain and what you were thinking of as the ethyl group is actually the beginning of the pentane chain

@chemistrytutor

You can never have a 'branch' on the end of a chain. So with a propane chain of three carbons, the 1 and 3 position are actually ends. Both of those positions turns propane into butane

Your video was soo helpful but I was a little confused at about 22:00 in the video. Why couldn't you position the bromine at the 3rd or 4th carbon? Why can it only be positioned at the 1st and 2nd carbon?

@chemistrytutor

10 ай бұрын

Glad it's useful! You can put it in those positions. BUT, once it's placed in either of those positions, you number from whichever end of the chain makes the numbers the smallest. So if it was on what looks like position 4, for instance, you could turn the molecule over or simply start numbering from the opposite end
