Front (Question)
What is the IUPAC method for naming epoxides?
Back (Answer)
One systematic method for naming epoxides is to name the rest of the molecule and use the term “epoxy” as a substituent, giving the numbers of the two carbon atoms bonded to the epoxide oxygen

an R-O-R group can be determined based on the absence of carbonyl and hydroxyl groups
