  Organic Chemistry: Structure and Function, Chapter 2, Problem 49P , additional homework tip  2

Beside the IUPAC names there are certain common names. The common prefixes include prefixes “iso-” and “neo-”. For example, isobutane is common name used popularly for 2-methylpropane .

The carbon linked to one alkyl/carbon while other two H are termed primary carbon. Thus hydrogen linked to such carbon is referred as primary.

The carbon linked to two alkyl /carbons and one H is termed secondary carbon. Thus hydrogen linked to such carbon is referred as secondary.

The carbon linked to three alkyl groups/carbons and no H is termed tertiary carbon. Thus hydrogen linked to such carbon is referred as tertiary.

These are indicated below:
