Step-by-step solution for: 11: Intro Organic Structures - Chemistry LibreTexts
The image you've uploaded contains a grid of organic molecules, each with their structural formulas and simplified line-angle or condensed formulas. The task appears to be naming each compound based on its structure.
Let’s go through each molecule systematically, identify the functional group, and provide the IUPAC name (or common name where appropriate). We’ll also explain how we determine the name for each.

1. CH₃CO₂H
- Structure: Carboxylic acid with two carbons
- Name: Acetic acid (common) / Ethanoic acid (IUPAC)
2. CH₃CHO
- Aldehyde with two carbons
- Name: Acetaldehyde (common) / Ethanal (IUPAC)
3. CH₃COCH₃
- Ketone with three carbons
- Name: Acetone (common) / Propanone (IUPAC)
4. CH₃COOCH₃
- Ester from acetic acid and methanol
- Name: Methyl acetate / Methyl ethanoate
5. CH₃CH₂OH
- Alcohol with two carbons
- Name: Ethanol
---
6. CH₃CH₂CH₃
- Alkane with three carbons
- Name: Propane
7. CH₃CH=CH₂
- Alkene with three carbons, double bond at C1
- Name: Propene
8. HC≡CH
- Alkyne with two carbons
- Name: Ethyne
9. CH₃CONH₂
- Amide from acetic acid
- Name: Acetamide / Ethanimide
10. CH₃CH₂NH₂
- Primary amine with two carbons
- Name: Ethylamine / Ethanamine
---
11. CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₃
- Alkane with four carbons
- Name: Butane
12. CH₃CH=CHCH₃
- Alkene with four carbons, double bond between C2–C3
- Name: But-2-ene
13. CH₃C≡CCH₃
- Alkyne with four carbons, triple bond in center
- Name: But-2-yne
14. CH₃CONHCH₃
- N-methylacetamide
- Name: N-Methylacetamide / N-Methylethanamide
15. CH₃CH₂NHCH₃
- Secondary amine: ethyl + methyl
- Name: N-Methylethylamine / N-Methylpropan-1-amine? Wait...
Actually: Ethylmethylamine or N-Methylethanamine
Correct IUPAC: N-Methylethanamine or N-Methylpropan-1-amine? No!
Carbon chain is two carbons, so: N-Methylethanamine
But better: Ethylmethylamine (common), but IUPAC is N-Methylethanamine

16. CH₃CH₂CO₂H
- Carboxylic acid with three carbons
- Name: Propanoic acid
17. CH₃CH₂CHO
- Aldehyde with three carbons
- Name: Propanal
18. CH₃CH₂COOCH₂CH₃
- Ester from propanoic acid and ethanol
- Name: Ethyl propanoate
19. CH₃COOCH₂CH₃
- Ester from acetic acid and ethanol
- Name: Ethyl acetate / Ethyl ethanoate
20. CH₃OH
- Alcohol with one carbon
- Name: Methanol

- Carboxylic acids: Replace "-e" with "-oic acid" → e.g., ethane → ethanoic acid
- Aldehydes: Replace "-e" with "-al" → e.g., propanoic acid → propanal
- Ketones: Replace "-e" with "-one", number to show position → e.g., propanone
- Esters: [Alkyl] + [alkanoate], derived from carboxylic acid and alcohol
- Alkanes: Straight chains → methane, ethane, propane, butane
- Alkenes: Replace "-ane" with "-ene", number double bond → e.g., but-2-ene
- Alkynes: Replace "-ane" with "-yne" → e.g., but-2-yne
- Amides: From carboxylic acids, replace "acid" with "amide" → e.g., ethanamide
- Amines: Use "amino-" prefix or suffix "-amine" → primary: ethanamine; secondary: N-methyl substitution

🧠 Explanation of Naming Rules:
- Carboxylic acids: Replace "-e" with "-oic acid" → e.g., ethane → ethanoic acid
- Aldehydes: Replace "-e" with "-al" → e.g., propanoic acid → propanal
- Ketones: Replace "-e" with "-one", number to show position → e.g., propanone
- Esters: [Alkyl] + [alkanoate], derived from carboxylic acid and alcohol
- Alkanes: Straight chains → methane, ethane, propane, butane
