Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The structure of propyl cyclopentane needs to be determined.
Concept introduction:
The rules to write the IUPAC name of molecules are as follows:
- Check the longest C chain and assign root word for that.
- Add prefix for the branch or side chain with its position.
- Add di, tri, tetra prefix for more than one prefix.
- The primary suffix indicates the single, double and triple bond in the molecule.
- Secondary suffix indicates the presence of
functional group in the molecule. - In cyclic compounds the ring is named as cycloalkane.
(b)
Interpretation:
Structure of 1,2-dimethylcyclobutane needs to be determined.
Concept introduction:
The rules to write the IUPAC name of molecules are as follows:
- Check the longest C chain and assign root word for that.
- Add prefix for the branch or side chain with its position.
- Add di, tri, tetra prefix for more than one prefix.
- The primary suffix indicates the single, double and triple bond in the molecule.
- Secondary suffix indicates the presence of functional group in the molecule.
- In cyclic compounds the ring is named as cycloalkane.
(c)
Interpretation:
The structure of 1, 1, 2-trimethylcyclopropane needs to be determined.
Concept introduction:
The rules to write the IUPAC name of molecules are as follows:
- Check the longest C chain and assign root word for that.
- Add prefix for the branch or side chain with its position.
- Add di, tri, tetra prefix for more than one prefix.
- The primary suffix indicates the single, double and triple bond in the molecule.
- Secondary suffix indicates the presence of functional group in the molecule.
- In cyclic compounds the ring is named as cycloalkane.
(d)
Interpretation:
The structure of 4-ethyl-1,2-dimethylcyclohexane needs to be determined.
Concept introduction:
