<strong>Naming</strong> Alkenes / Alkynes<strong>Naming</strong> alkenes (double bonds) and alkynes (triple bonds) are verysimilar to alkanes. When naming, take these two points intoconsideration:• the longest parent chain of carbon atoms must include the multiplebond, and the chain is numbered from the end closest to the multiplebond• the name of the compound's parent chain is preceded by a numberthat indicates the position of the multiple bond on the parent chain.Ex. CH 2 = CH CH 2 CH 3CH 3 C = C CH 3CH 3CH 3 CH = CH CH CH 3CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 CH 3CH 3 CH =CH 22
