NOMENCLATURE OF ALCOHOLS
Alcohols with one to four carbon atoms are frequently called by common
names, in which the name of the alkyl group is followed by the word alcohol:
Isopropyl alcohol
1. The longest continuous chain (LCC) of carbon atoms containing the OH group
is taken as the parent compound—an alkane with the same number of carbon
atoms. The chain is numbered from the end nearest the OH group.
2. The number that indicates the position of the OH group is prefixed to the name
of the parent hydrocarbon, and the -e ending of the parent alkane is replaced
by the suffix -ol. (In cyclic alcohols, the carbon atom bearing the OH group is
designated C1, but the 1 is not used in the name.) Substituents are named and
numbered as in alkanes.

CH3OH — methyl alcohol methanol
CH3CH2OH primary Ethyl alcohol ethanol
CH3CH2CH2OH primary propyl alcohol 1-propanol
(CH3)2CHOH secondary isopropyl alcohol 2-propanol
CH3CH2CH2CH2OH primary butyl alcohol 1-butanol
CH3CH2CHOHCH3 secondary sec-butyl alcohol 2-butanol
(CH3)2CHCH2OH primary isobutyl alcohol 2-methyl-1-propanol
(CH3)3COH tertiary tert-butyl alcohol 2-methyl-2-propanol
secondary cyclohexyl alcohol cyclohexanol
EXERCISES:
1.
2. HOCH2CH2CH2CH2CH2OH
SOLUTION:
1. Ten carbon atoms in the LCC makes the compound a derivative of decane
(rule 1), and the OH on the third carbon atom makes it a 3-decanol (rule 2).
6
The carbon atoms are numbered from the end closest to the OH group.
That fixes the two methyl (CH 3) groups at the sixth and eighth positions. The
name is 6,8-dimethyl-3-decanol (not 3,5-dimethyl-8-decanol).
2. Five carbon atoms in the LCC make the compound a derivative of pentane.
Two OH groups on the first and fifth carbon atoms make the compound a diol
and give the name 1,5-pentanediol (rule 3).
V. SUMMARY
In the IUPAC system, alcohols are named by changing the ending of the
parent alkane name to -ol. Alcohols are classified according to the number of
carbon atoms attached to the carbon atom that is attached to the OH group.
