Naming Organic Compounds Series: Video 3
This tutorial video takes you through the steps of naming branched chain alkanes using the IUPAC naming rules. A branched chain alkane is an organic molecule that has smaller carbon chains sticking out in the middle rather than having all carbons connected in a single row. Video includes a number of practice problems from simple to tricky, single and multiple branches.
