Interpretation: For a given C5H13N molecular formula, all the possible tertiary constitutional isomers and the names with structures have to be found with chirality nature if any.
Concept Introduction: The arrangement of atoms that are bonded together determines its constitution and molecular formula of that particular compound. This concept is referred as structural isomers or in more modern term constitutional isomers.
Each atom has a typical valency or valence which is defined as the ability of an atom to form a
If ,
and
groups are attached to the parent carbon, they are called primary, secondary and tertiary
There are two ways followed to name the compound. First one is the method of giving general name in which name of the alkyl group followed by amine name is given. Second one is the method giving IUPAC name in which name of the alkane group followed by amine name is given.
The length of the chain which is having more number of carbon atoms is selected as the parent or main chain. Other chains are considered as substituents to the main chain. Position of the substituents should be included in the name. If one, two, three, four, five, six, etc carbons are activating as the main chain in IUPAC system, then the name of the compound comes as methane, ethane, propane, butane, pentane, hexane, etc. which are the name of
If a carbon is attached with four different groups, that carbon atom is chiral in nature. It shows optical isomerism.
To find: Draw all the possible tertiary constitutional isomers and assign the corresponding name for C5H13N with chirality if any.
