Common names are historical names for organic compounds. IUPAC names are systematic names based on the structure of the molecule. - Aldehydes are named by replacing the '-e' of the alkane with '- al'. - Unsaturated aldehydes are named based on the position of the double bond and the aldehyde group. The aldehyde carbon is always C1.
