Question is attached
Given structure is
To do the nomenclature of any compound first parent carbon chain is identified and numbering is done. Here the parent carbon chain is of 6 carbon
The parent carbon chain is cyclic and have 6 carbon. The root word for 6 carbon chain is hexa- and since it is a cyclic and saturated compound so the whole name will be cyclohexane.
Now numbering is done from the functional group side.
The functional group present here is ketone. 2 ketone groups are attached on the carbon 1st and 3rd. The suffix used for ketone is -one. The ketone here is only group present so it will be the most priority group hence suffix of functional group will be used.
The IUPAC name of the compound is cyclohexane-1,3-dione.
