Organic Chemistry Nomenclature

Aldehyde as a substituent — When aldehydes occur as substituents on compounds of higher nomenclature priority they are named after the appropriate carboxylic acid, and thought of as removing the —OH from the —COOH. The name is obtained by removing the -ic from the appropriate acid and adding -oyl if it is an IUPAC name or -yl if it is a common name. Formic acid becomes formyl, methanoic acid becomes methanoyl.

n-Butyl alcohol or butanol is a primary alcohol consisting of a four-carbon chain structure and the formula is C4H9OH. Its isomers of n-butanol include tert-butanol, 2-butanol, and iso-butanol. Butanol is basically a petrochemical and is produced from propylene. n-Butanol is used as a replacement for diesel and gasoline. It is also known for its use as a biofuel, 85% of butanol can be used in cars which solely run on diesel and petrol, without any engine modification, and more energy output than ethanol. Butanol is added to diesel fuel to minimize the soot emissions. Commercially available n-butanol was procured from Sigma Aldrich. at 105 USD/l. Iso-butanol is a transparent and inflammable fluid with a distinctive smell, it is directly used as a solvent or as its esters. Iso-butanol has a IUPAC name 2-methylpropan-1-ol, it is an organic compound and an aliphatic alcohol with the chemical formula (CH3)2CHCH2OH (also represented as i-BuOH). Its isomers consist of tert-butanol, n-butanol, and 2-butanol and all are mainly used for industrial purposes as a solvent in chemical reactions and in organic synthesis.
