Interpretation:
The name and structure of the alkyl group corresponding to methane should be determined.
Concept introduction:
The group formed by the loss of hydrogen atom from the corresponding
Answer to Problem 52A
Explanation of Solution
A type of functional group that contains only hydrogen and carbon atoms in its structure is said to be alkyl group and are formed by the loss of hydrogen atom from the corresponding alkane. In order to name the alkyl groups, the suffix -ane of the alkane are dropped and the suffix -yl is added to name that is the alkane name is changed to alkyl.
The general formula for an alkane group is
The given parent alkane is methane, 3
Interpretation:
The name and structure of the alkyl group corresponding to butane should be determined.
