In this video we're going to talk about the way of naming cycloalkanes. Now we're going to say the name. The rules for naming cyclical canes or cycloalkanes are very similar to naming alkanes with substituents.

Here our naming convention will be looking at the location of each substituent, and because it's a cyclical cycloalkane, the parent chain is named as a cyclo parent chain.

So now that we know the basic naming structure, let's move on to the next video where we start naming different types of cycloalkane compounds.
