Let us try to name some of the other classes of organic compounds using IUPAC rules:
  
1. 7aa.PNG
 
Step 1: According to rule \(1\), there is a three-membered carbon chain; hence, the root word is 'Prop'.
  
Step 2: According to rule \(2\), all the bonds between carbon atoms are single bond, and thus the primary suffix is ‘ane’.
 
Step 3: According to rule \(3\), the carbon chain is numbered from the end closest to the \(-OH\) group that has the lowest locant number, as shown below

Step 4: The locant number is \(1\) for the \(-OH\) group, and hence the secondary suffix is ‘\(-1-ol\)’.
 
Note: According to rule \(5\), when the primary and secondary suffixes are combined, the primary suffix's terminal 'e' is removed.
 
Hence, the name of the given compound is \(\text{Prop + ane + (-1-ol) = Propan-1-ol}\).

Step 1: According to rule \(1\), there is a two-membered carbon chain; hence, the root word is 'Eth'.
  
Step 2: According to rule \(2\), all the bonds between carbon atoms are single bonds, and thus the primary suffix is ‘ane’.
 
Step 3: The given compound contains carboxylic acid group (\(-COOH\)), and hence the secondary suffix is 'oic acid'.
 
Note: According to rule \(5\), when the primary and secondary suffixes are combined, the primary suffix's terminal 'e' is removed.
 
Hence, the name of the given compound is \(\text{Eth + ane + oic acid = Ethanoic acid}\).

Step 1: According to rule \(1\), there is a two-membered carbon chain; hence, the root word is 'Eth'.
  
Step 2: According to rule \(2\), all the bonds between carbon atoms are single bond, and thus the primary suffix is ‘ane’.
  
Step 3: The given compound contains an aldehyde group (\(-CHO\)), and hence the secondary suffix is 'al'.
 
Note: According to rule \(5\), when the primary and secondary suffixes are combined, the primary suffix's terminal 'e' is removed.
 
Hence, the name of the given compound is \(\text{Eth + ane + al = Ethanal}\).
 
4. 8a.PNG
 
Step 1: According to rule \(1\), there is a four-membered carbon chain; hence, the root word is 'But'.
  
Step 2: According to rule \(2\), all the bonds between carbon atoms are single bonds, and thus the primary suffix is ‘ane’.
  
Step 3: The given compound contains ketone group (\(-C=O\)), and hence the secondary suffix is 'one'.
 
Step 4: The numbering of carbon chain occurs in such a way that the lowest possible number is given to the functional group in the chain.
 
So, its locant number is \(2\). Thus, the suffix is ‘\(2-one\)’.

Note: According to rule \(5\), when the primary and secondary suffixes are combined, the primary suffix's terminal 'e' is removed.
 
Hence, the name of the given compound is \(\text{But + ane + (-2-one) = Butan-2-one}\).
 
5. 9a.PNG
 
Step 1: According to rule \(1\), there is a four-membered carbon chain; hence, the root word is 'But'.
  
Step 2: According to rule \(2\), all the bonds between carbon atoms are single bonds, and thus the primary suffix is ‘ane’.
  
Step 3: The given compound contains halogen group (\(Cl\)), and hence the prefix is 'chloro'.
 
Step 4: According to rule \(6\), the substituent is a halogen group compound located at the first carbon atom.
 
The numbering of carbon chain occurs in such a way that the lowest possible number is given to the functional group in the chain.

So, its locant number is \(1\). Thus, the prefix is ‘\(1-chloro\)’.
 
Hence, the name of the given compound is \(\text{1-chloro + But + ane  = 1-Chloro butane}\).
 
The below are some of the IUPAC names of various classes of compound:
