Naming Organic Compounds - Branched Chain Alkanes
Are you struggling with organic chemistry? Download my free ebook "10 Secrets To Acing Organic Chemistry" here: leah4sci.com/orgo-ebook/
leah4sci.com/organicchemistry/ presents: Naming Straight Chain Alkanes
This video is Part 3 in the Naming Organic Compounds series
In this video I show you how to approach the naming of a branched or multi-branched alkane. The concepts discussed in this video will show up in every subsequent video as we slowly tackle functional group after functional group turning a potentially difficult topic into something doable and fun (yup, that wasn't a typo)
Many students struggle with naming because they attempt to come up with the entire name at once and often wind up missing a piece or two. After this series you won't have that problem anymore

I normally don't comment on videos, but truly this video was a lifesaver. You explained this in 10 minutes that someone else would have taken an entire 2 hour long class to teach. Thank you so much I finally understand this.

I have been sort of struggling with Organic Chemistry. This really simplified things and allowed me to finish my homework in a breeze. I will be watching through out Organic Chem I. :)

Currently, we are going over R and S, meso, chiral, and achiral, sterochemistry, enamors, diisomers, fisher's models, and that's all I can think of off the top of my head. (hopefully the spelling is close enough)

I am so impressed with your videos, I needed to quickly review my organic chemistry and had forgotten everything. After watching 2-3 videos of yours, I practiced some questions in my course and immediately got the right answer, you saved me days of reviewing and studying lol.. big thank you

This is the third time reviewing this video and it really helps drill into me the importance of finding my mind's shortcuts to help me really understand !! We need more orgo prof's like you! It's sad, though, because there is only 55 minutes for each class..

@Leah4sci
Ай бұрын
Glad they're helping. If given just a molecular formula, look at the # of H atoms. If there are too few, you have a pi bond For example: CHCCH3 has a triple bond where CH2CHCH3 has a double bond
