• Identify the substituent group attached to the carbon chain.

• For alkane use suffix - ane 

• Numbering of the carbon chain is done from the end nearest to the to the substituent branches.

• Designating the location of each substituent group by appropriate name and number in their alphabetical order followed by the parent name.
