Interpretation:
In the given structure primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary carbons are to be labeled.
Concept introduction:
The carbons in a chemical formula may or may not be branched. The branched carbons are categorized as primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary carbons depending on the substituent attached to it. The branched carbons are categorized to understand the
(b)
Interpretation:
In the given structure primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary carbons are to be labeled.
Concept introduction:
The carbons in a chemical formula may or may not be branched. The branched carbons are categorized as primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary carbons depending on the substituent attached to it. The branched carbons are categorized to understand the chemical reactions in which these carbons are involved.
The hydrogens attached to branched carbons are also categorized as primary, secondary and tertiary hydrogens.
