The systematic IUPAC name is not always the preferred IUPAC name, for example, lactic acid is a common, and also the preferred, name for what systematic rules call 2-hydroxypropanoic acid. This list is ordered by the number of carbon atoms in a carboxylic acid.
The alkyl (R') group is named first. The R−C(=O)O part is then named as a separate word based on the carboxylic acid name, with the ending changed from "-oic acid" to "-oate" or "-carboxylate" For example, CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 COOCH 3 is methyl pentanoate, and (CH 3) 2 CHCH 2 CH 2 COOCH 2 CH 3 is ethyl 4-methylpentanoate.

The main structure of chemical names according to IUPAC nomenclature. The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) has published four sets of rules to standardize chemical nomenclature. There are two main areas: IUPAC nomenclature of inorganic chemistry (Red Book) IUPAC nomenclature of organic chemistry (Blue Book)
hydrogen oxalate (HC 2 O − 4) The formula Na 2 SO 3 denotes that the cation is sodium, or Na +, and that the anion is the sulfite ion (SO 2− 3). Therefore, this compound is named sodium sulfite. If the given formula is Ca(OH) 2, it can be seen that OH − is the hydroxide ion.
2-Methylbutanoic acid, also known as 2-methylbutyric acid is a branched-chain alkyl carboxylic acid with the chemical formula CH 3 CH 2 CH(CH 3)CO 2 H, classified as a short-chain fatty acid. It exists in two enantiomeric forms, ( R )- and ( S )-2-methylbutanoic acid.
Isovaleric acid, also known as 3-methylbutanoic acid or β-methylbutyric acid, is a branched-chain alkyl carboxylic acid with the chemical formula (CH 3) 2 CHCH 2 CO 2 H. It is classified as a short-chain fatty acid. Like other low-molecular-weight carboxylic acids, it has an unpleasant odor. The compound occurs naturally and can be found in ...
2,3-Dimethyl-1-butene is an organic compound with the formula CH 2 =C(CH 3)CH(CH 3) 2. Like the other isomers of dimethylbutene , it is a colorless liquid. Together with 2,3-dimethyl-2-butene it can be produced by dimerization of propylene .
