Interpretation:
The systematic names of the given unsaturated hydrocarbon should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
The hydrocarbon compounds that is compound containing only hydrogen and carbon atoms that contains multiple bond(s) are said to be unsaturated hydrocarbon. Compounds containing double bonds are said to be alkene whereas compounds containing triple bonds are said to be alkyne.

Answer to Problem 144CP
2, 4-dimethylpent-1, 4-diene.
Explanation of Solution
The given structure is:
The parent chain in the given structure is of 5-carbon atoms so, prefix will be pent. Numbering is done in such a way that the multiple bond that is double bond gets lower number that is 1 and 4 for double bond and the substituent on 2 and 4 position is methyl.
So, the IUPAC name will be: 2, 4-dimethylpent-1, 4-diene.

Answer to Problem 144CP
6-ethyl-2-methyloct-4-ene.
Explanation of Solution
The given structure is:
The parent chain in the given structure is of 5-carbon atoms so, prefix will be oct. Numbering is done in such a way that the multiple bond that is double bond gets lower number that is 4 for double bond and the substituent on 2 position is methyl and on 6 position is ethyl.
So, the IUPAC name will be: 6-ethyl-2-methyloct-4-ene.
