(a)
Interpretation:
The name of the given aromatic compound should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
The ring structures of the compound having uncommon stability due to delocalized pi electron density shared in between all the carbon atoms of the ring is said to be an aromatic compound.
In order to give the name to the multiple substituted
- For single substituted aromatic compound (when the substituent contains six or fewer carbons), the name of the substituted group is written first followed by the name of the aromatic compound.
- For single substituted aromatic compound (when the substituent contains more than six carbons), the name of the aromatic compound is written first followed by the name of the substituted group.
- For single substituted aromatic compound, the numbering on the ring is done in such a way that the multiple substituents get the lowest number.
