More Functional Groups: Carboxylic acids, Ethers, Amines & Amides

-Carboxylic Acids are formed by the function group:

-Use standard rules but change the parent chain ending to -oic acid
-The simplest carboxylic acid is Methanoic Acid


Ethers

-An Ether is an oxygen group connected to 2 Alkyl (Carbons)
-Name the smaller alkyl group first, then the second alkyl group, followed by ether



Amines

-Amines are function groups that contain a Nitrogen compound bonded to either Hydrogens or Carbons

 
Amides


-The simplest amide is ethanamide
