Expert Solution

Step 1
IUPAC nomenclature:
In chemistry naming of compounds are done by two methods: common system and IUPAC system.Long form of IUPAC system is International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry.This system is universally accepted.These names are derived for different functional group by using certain rules.IUPAC names are simpler rather than common names.
IUPAC rule for the naming of nitriles:
- Nitriles can be named by naming each of the alkyl nitriles.
- The alkyl groups containing more carbon are considered as parent hydrocarbon.
- The other group is considered as substituent since it is attached to carbon atom of nitrile hence is named with alkyl nitriles.
