Interpretation:
The IUPAC name of the molecule whose carbon skeleton is shown below is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
The carbon skeleton of a compound represents the chain of carbon atoms that acts as a backbone of the compound. The carbon atom present in the alkyl group is also represented in the carbon skeleton.
The steps to determine the IUPAC name is:
Step 1: Identify the longest carbon chain and number them such that the substituents attached to the parent chain on the lowest number.
Step 2: Identify the carbon number to which the alkyl substituent is attached.
Step 3: Identify the alkyl substituent or branched group attached to a longest carbon chain.
