Naming organic molecules
« on: December 28, 2014, 02:45:37 PM »
Did I name these two molecules correctly?

The first one I got 1-fluoro-4-hydroxy-2-cyclohexene.

The second one I got 6-fluoro-4-hydroxy-2-cyclohexene.

The second one is not correct, check numbering.
The program I have names them as cyclohex-2-enols. Perhaps start from there.
