Cards in this deck (9)
- 1Draw the functional group of a carboxylate salt and give its suffixThe M+ is the cation.
Named with cation first and then -anoate.
eg sodium methanoate
- 2Draw sodium methanoate

- 3Draw the functional group for an acyl chloride and give the suffix-anoyl chloride
eg ethanoyl chloride
- 4Give the functional group for an acid anhydride and give the suffix-anoic anhydride
(if both chains same, as above, then simply ethanoic anhydride)
(if not then specify both eg ethanoic methanoic anhydride)
- 5Draw the functional group of an AMIDE, and give suffix-anamide
