IUPAC Rules for Alkane Nomenclature

1. Find and name the longest continuous carbon chain.


2. Identify and name groups attached to this chain.
3. Number the chain consecutively, starting at the end nearest a
substituent group.
4. Designate the location of each substituent group by an appropriate
number and name.
5. Assemble the name, listing groups in alphabetical order.
6. The prefixes di, tri, tetra etc., used to designate several groups of the
same kind, are not considered when alphabetizing.
