1.1. Find and name the longest continuous carbon chain. Find and name the longest continuous carbon chain. This is called the This is called the parent chainparent chain. (Examples: methane, . (Examples: methane, propane, etc.)propane, etc.)
2.2. Number the chain consecutively, starting at the end Number the chain consecutively, starting at the end nearest an attached group (nearest an attached group (substituentsubstituent). ).
3.3. Identify and name groups attached to this chain. Identify and name groups attached to this chain. 4.4. Designate the location of each substituent group with Designate the location of each substituent group with
the number of the carbon parent chain on which the the number of the carbon parent chain on which the group is attached. Place a dash between numbers and group is attached. Place a dash between numbers and letters. letters.
5.5. Assemble the name, listing groups in alphabetical Assemble the name, listing groups in alphabetical order. order. The prefixes di, tri, tetra etc., used to designate The prefixes di, tri, tetra etc., used to designate several groups of the same kind, are not considered several groups of the same kind, are not considered when alphabetizing. Place a comma between multiple when alphabetizing. Place a comma between multiple numbers. (Example: 2,3-dimethylpropane)numbers. (Example: 2,3-dimethylpropane)

how many hydrogens are attached• NOTE: The bonds are between
CARBONS in a parent chain, and not hydrogens!
