Nomenclature of haloarenes
In the IUPAC nomenclature, the halo arenes are named by adding prefix halo before the name of the aromatic hydrocarbon. For naming disubstituted arenes, the relative position of the substituent 1,2; 1,3 and 1,4 are indicated by the prefixes ortho, meta and para, respectively.
For poly haloarenes the numbering should be done in such a way that the lowest possible number should be given to the substituents and the name of the halogens are arranged in alphabetic order.
Nomenclature can be well understood from the following examples.
