As you preparing for IIT JEE and looking for information about IUPAC System [International union of pure and applied chemistry] nomenclature, here I will gather information for you.


About IUPAC
The most important feature of this system is that any given molecular structure has only one IUPAC name which denotes only one molecular structure.


Salient Features of IUPAC System
1. A given compound can be assigned only one name.


2. A given name can clearly direct in writing of one and only one molecular structure.

3. The system can be applied in naming complex organic compounds.


4. The system can be applied in naming multifunctional organic compounds.


5. This is simple, systematic and scientific method of nomenclature of organic compounds.


Rule For Naming
Prefix (alphabetically) root word (alk) primary suffix (ene, yne) secondary suffix (main functional group)


So IUPAC name of any organic compounds essentially consists of two or three parts.

(i) Root word (ii) Suffix (iii) Prefix
