Chapter 14, Problem 14.28AP

Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The correct name for $\text{2-hexyn-4-ol}$ is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The naming of organic compound is done such that the structure of the organic compound is correctly interpreted from the name.

Rules for writing IUPAC name from the structural formula are given below.

• First, identify the longest carbon chain.

• The next step is to identify the groups attached to the longest chain.

• Identify the position, location, and a number of the substituents bonded to the carbon chain.

• Use prefix di, tri, tetra if the same type of substituents are present.

• Name the substituents in alphabetical order.
