Naming Amines for A-level Chemistry using IUPAC rules

The alternative naming system for structure 1 for example would be butylamine as opposed to butan-1-amine like I have described in the video. According to OCR (via a tweet to me) they would accept wither in the A-level exams BUT the IUPAC version (described in this video) is now preferred.
Also ... I am fully aware that some of my molymod strucutres were missing C-H groups (haha), but thanks to Alexa responding to certain words in this tutorial, it already took way longer than expected to record/edit it so I decided to leave them.

Topics are organised by OCR module in the correct sequence of the specification.

great vid thankyou!

[@Anya-wr6ye]

Very useful video thank you! Helped alot. Just wondering would you need to know how to name a molecule with two secondary amines? Or is that not part of the syllabus, thanks :)

Unfortunately the spec isn’t 100% clear on what naming is/is not used. It’s VERY tricky to name one though so it’s INCREDIBLY unlikely as it’s unnecessarily complicated. Google 2-N-ethyl-3-N-methylpentane-2,3-diamine to get an idea 💡

[@tawanamufasa291]

can you call the last one 1,2-diaminobutane

[@mrmurraygreen]

You can (old school method) - and according to a recent OCR tweet, it will be accepted in the exam either way 👍🏻
