  • https://chem.libretexts.org/Courses/Williams_School/Chemistry_II/04%3A_Organic_Functional_Groups/4.11%3A_Carboxylic_Acids
    Carboxylic acids are important natural products and synthetic precursors.  The common names are provided for carboxylic acids (1 to 10 carbons) and selected dicarboxylic acids.

Indeed, if you have been looking for similarities, you will have seen that most of the reactions discussed in the preceding three chapters are variations on basic types we have discussed earlier.

    Aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, esters, and ethers have oxygen-containing functional groups.

It is not necessary to include the location number in the name because it is assumed that the functional group will be on the end of the parent chain.

Open chain nitriles are named with the word -nitrile after the name of the parent alkane name (include the carbon atom of the nitrile as part of the parent - as in the example CH 3 CN has two carbons including the nitrile carbon, therefore it is ethanenitrile).

It emphasizes understanding the priority of functional groups, especially for molecules with multiple functionalities, and highlights key naming conventions. Common and IUPAC names for carboxylic acids and the process for naming salts, dicarboxylic acids, and nitriles are explained.
