  • @Ponnyboy555 Alcohols take precedence over halogens when it comes to numbering carbons. 

  • @stevenhelock

    International baccalaureate examinations.

  • @UlsterOrange No, international as in IUPAC naming is not like that. I don't know what "international" rules you're talking about...

  • I think its legit to name the second compound as 2,2 dibromooct -3 -yne-5-ol

  • In Europe at least this video would be incorrect. You count carbons from the shortest possible end.

    For instance with 2-pentanol, the correct labels are: 1 2 3 2 1

    not: 5 4 3 2 1

    Use this for an A-Level/O-Level/International and Euro-baccalaureates and you WILL get the question wrong.

  • Alcohol is a mild poison too hard illegalise thanks to it's abundance.

  • Actually it is 2,2-dibromo-oct-3-yn-5-ol. ))) But great videos! Greetings from Czech Republic )))

  • this might do it in a more indirect way XD....funny and helpful

  • This is a great video

  • love the video man
