Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The “complex” five-carbon branched alkyl group has to be named using IUPAC rules.
Concept Introduction:
Alkyl groups are named according to
Rule 1:
Longest continuous chain which begins at the point of attachment of the alkyl group becomes the base name for the alkyl group.
Rule 2:
Base chain that is identified is numbered in a way beginning at the point of attachment.
Rule 3:
The substituents that are present in the base chain are listed in alphabetical order using the locant as prefixes whenever necessary.
(b)
Interpretation:
The “complex” five-carbon branched alkyl group has to be named using IUPAC rules.
Concept Introduction:
Alkyl groups are named according to IUPAC nomenclature. The name is obtained considering the parent alkane name and replacing “-ane” with “-yl”. In naming branched chain alkyl groups, this becomes little complicated. Hence, IUPAC system for giving name to such larger groups names them by considering as if they were themselves a separate compound. Three rules are followed while naming the larger groups.
Rule 1:
Longest continuous chain which begins at the point of attachment of the alkyl group becomes the base name for the alkyl group.
Rule 2:
Base chain that is identified is numbered in a way beginning at the point of attachment.
Rule 3:
The substituents that are present in the base chain are listed in alphabetical order using the locant as prefixes whenever necessary.

- [In this question, there are multiple answers to type in a "fill-in-the-blank" fashion - in each case, type in a whole number.] Consider using Slater's Rules to calculate the shielding factor (S) for the last electron in silicon (Si). There will be electrons with a 0.35 S-multiplier, electrons with a 0.85 S-multiplier, and electrons with a 1.00 S-multiplier.arrow_forwardProvide the unknown for the given data.arrow_forwardDraw the Lewis structures of two methanol (CH3OH) molecules and depict hydrogenbonding between them with dashed lines.
