b) Heptanedioic acid
Interpretation:
The structure of heptanedioic acid is to be given.
Concept introduction:
The names of simple carboxylic acids which are derivatives of open-chain alkanes are arrived by replacing the terminal –e of the corresponding alkane name by –oic acid. The numbering starts from carboxyl carbon. Compounds with –COOH bonded to a ring are named using the suffix-carboxylic acid. The –COOH carbon in this case is not numbered as C1, instead the carbon to which it is attached is numbered as C1. As a substituent, the –COOH group is called as carboxyl group.
