3 Brief Demonstration of the General Nomenclature Rules
Primary diamines and polyamines are most consistently named according to substitutive principles.
Naphthalene-l,8-diamine
Pentane-l ,2,3,4,5-pentamine
Carbazole-2,3,7 -triamine
If all amino groups are found in the side chains of a cyclic system, substitutive or conjunctive names are utilized.
H2N- H2CyyO~CHcCH2-NH2
~ 3 CH 2 -CH 2 -NH 2
conj.: 7 -(Aminomethyl)dibenzofuran -2,3-bis( ethan amine )
subst.: 2,2'-[7-(Aminomethyl)dibenzofuran-2,3-diyllbis(ethanamine)
Secondary and tertiary amines are in most cases still named radicofunctionally, in a manner that can easily be transformed into a substitutive naming mode based on the parent hydride name azane. Within the boundaries of
conventional substitutive nomenclature, amines of that sort are interpreted
as products of N-substitution of the most serior primary amine present.
