Chapter 14.1, Problem 14.1P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The IUPAC names of the given alcohol should be determined.

Concept Introduction:

In order to give the IUPAC name to the alcohol following steps are followed:

1. The parent (longest)alkane chain is identified.

2. The ending of the parent chain from alkane (-e) is changed to -ol and the number is used to locate the -OH group of alcohol.

3. Name should be written in alphabetical order and numbering should be done in such a way that hydroxy group gets lowest number.

4. Configuration should be specified is there exist any cis-trans isomerism.
