In organic nomenclature, when both the ring and chain contain functional groups, the ring becomes the root word and the chain becomes a prefix; the functional group with higher priority in the preferential series (carboxylic acid > acid chloride > amides > nitrites > aldehydes > ketones > alcohols > alkenes) determines the root word, and numbering should give the lowest position numbers to functional groups and substituents.

Nomenclature part 24Added:
now the real entity alright so what happens in the rain we are having that is the function multiple bond and the chain contains a function I'm sorry to breathe and changes in what I said the ring contains the multiple bond and the team contains the function so which we get the reference definitely the gene because according to the preference LCDs functional group first comes first and after that we get the political power decide function which are the modules with exaggerated ketones alcohols as they mature amides acid chloride what will it is it that comes first and then after that and keeps all tanks and substitutes so what I say here suppose we are having that is a change there and we are having here let us say what is that we will take here C which will have it here and here we will have ring and the ring contains our multiple part let us say multiple bodies being present here but we've got a special one more thing and putting it here and giving this prefix also let us say C history okay fine and let me increase the number of carbon atoms here also let us say it is this number of carbon atoms - all right then what will I do from each side I'll do the counting these not work but whatever I need to do is that see that we see now let me put the hydrogen atom yes see it's 3 CH 2 CH 2 CH and every deceased all right I can see that the chain contains a functional group and the ring contains a multiple partner so definitely the chain will get that what you can say the root word the chain is the root word all right J is the root word you can see because the functional group is present in the gene now and the rain becomes here prefects now this is we did listen carefully so first thing is that which is your longest this is your luggage this becomes a root word fine now we have to come from this - or we need to confront this action from this direction bishop context see so whichever direction we count one two three or one two three whichever direction we found the function to consider the third position of which comes in third question suppose one two three they also third one two three then also third it comes in the third position no doubt about it but if we start counting from here one two three all right if I start counting from here then what happens is that this prefix sounds in which position second position and if I start counting from here one two three four perfect sunset which position fourth position see carefully here it comes in the fourth position prefix and here it comes in second version because from either side functional GU comes in third question no problem at all then after the function do we have to give preference to traffic salon because on both sides the function will be the same then what means you will see the profits then we should get the lowest number so in that case we will see the prefix from this side it gets the first number second and it from this side it gets a number that is your four so hence we'll start counting from here one two three four and five is it clear what I said so that is one here one two three four five we can say that yeah now next is after that here what do we do here what I will do definitely the accountant will start from here because the branches yes accounting we'll be starting from here now the question is should I go 1 2 3 4 5 in this way or 1 2 3 4 5 a person no we will go in this way 1 2 3 4 5 because if I come in this way if I come in this way then double bond get switch position third position if I come in this Smith double bond also expert position let's number but if I come in this way then we can get subject position and if I come in this way the method gives a second position thinking same thing lowest numbers lot of things you see it here a lot of things I don't you decide if I come in this way you see double bond comes amid question 1 2 3 if I come in this report comes our third position no problem either then same but if I come in this way 1 2 3 4 5 bit higher its fifth position and this this way you can see second so evolve always have to give the notice number so before answering you have to think a lot and then you need to answer it it's not that you've got the question and started answering all right now we have to write that are you listening properly you have to read IEP singing because the prefix is little bit complicated alright so what you have to do the secondary prefix second really prefix what I need to do see the in case of secondary prefix I will write it here too because it starts from 2 here then but inside 3 second position with I to be tie sorry second question retired then in put aside cyclo what is that 5 5 a banana and then how many in 3 in 3 third portion in and first question I in first question is this because here I am doing cyclopentane use of it so in this way to see this is here too and the whole thing I'd sit in second position this might add this to comes from here second condition we tend to be tight and then cyclo it is cyclo penta hope and and third version in three in and one by one right because in the first question I have removed one head and only this is been added unless and until if I got paper already and how it will how this Guardians and ranching has to be done in this way we got it now next after that the root word because cyclo comes here recently in the secondary traffic's now so root word is one paint you can see now Nexus primary suffix is a because all is single no doubt about it second three suffixes lot in third version all so you will be removed so hence what we get it to to metal cyclo penta three in one i Penta three all this is Ibiza name we got it all right when a function is present in the chain and the multiple bond is present in that ring all right okay know where anybody's there suppose in the chain is there a difference to the change supposing the ring would have been there then I have never given preference to that ring not to the chain then the rain will become your root word and the change will become that perfect alright suppose it is opposite the ring contains a function or the chain contains a multiple quad then it will be opposite the rain will become your root quad and the change will become yeah perfect yeah now let us say real and chain both contains functional both are having functionally nice outside function Drupal and chain is also having function both are having function in that case we have to see which is a primary functional we chose this primary that will come that will become the root word we have to see which is your primary function you understood them both ring and generic function in that case we decide is the primary function and we will do it accordingly we will give preference to that particular one whether it's a chain or reducer ring okay now see it here we are having here C o HC o H and here we are having that is nothing but ah rain we are having it here and we are having a function of The Dispatch okay now let us say I'm having here CL Europe and I'm having also multiple bond here let us say it is multiple constant yes it can be possible so it is ch 2 here it is not possible here it is ch ok done now adenine sees that the ring and the change is having from shape to the ring is also having a function both are having a function only do you see that multiple bond that is not required at all because when function cook is there then multiple bond is definitely does not get the preference because I told you earlier also that multiple bond comes much much lower in the preferential series and the last it comes almost so here we will see which is a primary function group this is your primary because remember the preferential series not it it starts from carboxylic acid isn't it so this is the first one it comes this it comes first so hence this one and this one is alcohol protects alcohol comes much much below we can say that in the preferential series because carboxylic acid cell phonee considers it an hybrid Easter's acid chlorides amides then nitrites ISO nitride aldehydes ketones alcohols Pig tops alright so it comes much much below even say that so this is your primary so in this case what we will do this becomes you're nothing but a root word this is the long this is the longest gene and this is your and this is nothing because your profits all right now in both cuttings functional review the site which is having the primary function one two three four five now here the secondary prefects and here we what we'll do one two three four one two three four not in this way one two three four because in this way we'll get the foot position and this means we come in to say acquisition or it don't say certainly this is one no never it is 1 this is 1 because the branching starts from here got it yes so secondary prefects what we get see first is in third position we get nothing but 2 3 2 3 close then in the fourth position part we get fourth position what we get we get there is two hydroxy see in the ring but we are having two hydroxy too because now this becomes prefix prefix means a name change is two hydroxy then two hydroxy cyclo what is that buuuut I because for par the one two three four four color anything else to say c-3po or third position blue fourth position what are you having for position and therefore we are having second position hydroxy second question hydroxy now what do you have in cyclobutane two hydroxy side you get all done now after that root word this primary profits is come inside here on a root word so root word is what root word is spent primary suffixes nothing but we can say to in because you can see two in second question in estate and secondary suffixes one weak acid because Co which is nothing but known as oil gas it so one we can say e and booboo the sorry is removed so we got it the name 300 400 hydroxy cyclo butane pent to a 1-week acids so in this way we got that I ups the name of this particular compound be cancer that okay understood now the rule so if the ring and the pertains both function group in that case we'll decide which is a primary function if the ring contains the primary functional group the thing becomes at work the chain contains a priority functional group then the chain becomes your root word or X it is done accordingly okay now next thank you very much
