(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Given cycloalkane has to be named using IUPAC nomenclature.

Concept Introduction:

IUPAC rules for naming cycloalkanes:

A common nomenclature of naming organic compounds has been developed by IUPAC.  By usage of this nomenclature or rules, memorizing of names of organic compounds is not necessary.

• The number of carbon atoms present in the ring is counted and the name of the alkane that has the same number of carbon atoms is given by adding prefix “cyclo-” to the alkane name.
• If the ring is substituted, then the names of the group or atoms have to be placed before the name of cycloalkane.  If only one substituent is present, then number is not required.
• If the ring contains more than one substituent, then the numbers has to be used in a way that it gives the lowest position for the substituents.
