Interpretation:
The IUPAC name of the following compound should be determined:
Concept Introduction:
Organic compounds are the compounds that are mainly composed of C and H atoms. The branch of chemistry that deals with the preparation, reactions and properties of organic compounds is said to be organic chemistry. The molecular formula of an organic compound represents the number of bonded atoms with their atomic symbols. The structural formula represents all the bonded atoms with chemical bonds and the arrangement of atoms in the molecule. IUPAC purposed some rules to determine the name of an organic compound that is based on the number of C atoms in the longest chain of the compound and the name of branches.
