Name the compound having the formulaCH_3 - CH_2 - CH_2 - underset(CH_3) underset(|) overset(CH_3) overset(|) C-CH_3 |
|
Answer» Solution : IUPAC parts of the complete name of the STRUCTURAL formula: ROOT word, Primary suffix, Secondary suffix, Prefix. (i) There are 5 C atoms in the continuous chain. Therefore, root word = pent. (ii) Only C-C covalent bonds are present in the chain. Therefore, primary suffix is ane. (III) There is no functional group with the parent chain. Therefore, secondary suffix is not involved. (iv) There are two substituent of METHYL radicals `(-CH_3)` on carbon 2. Therefore, prefix is 2,2-dimethyl. Thus the IUPAC name of the given compound is derived as:
