What is the IUPAC name of the following compound?(a) 2-Propylprop-1-ene(b) 2,3-Dimethylbut-1-ene(c) 2,4-Dimethylbut-1-ene(d) 1,3-Dimethylbut-2-eneThe question was asked during an internship interview.My question is from Haloalkanes Nomenclature in portion Haloalkanes and Haloarenes of Chemistry – Class 12

Answer»

Correct option is (B) 2,3-Dimethylbut-1-ene

The best I can explain: The parent carbon chain must INCLUDE the double BOND, so there are 4 C atoms including the C-C double bond and the double bond is present at C-1 with TWO METHYL groups at positions 2 and 3.
