Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The structure of menthene which has the systematic name 1-isopropyl-4-methylcyclohexene is to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
The maximum number of carbons in the ring is counted. Based on the name of the parent cycloalkane–the cycloalkene is named with the suffix–ene. The cycloalkane is numbered such that the double bond is in between C1 & C2 and the first substituent has the lowest number possible. Usually the position of a double bond is not shown in the name because it is always between C1 & C2. In dienes and trienes, however the position of double bonds is shown.
To draw:
The structure of menthene which has the systematic name 1-isopropyl-4-methylcyclohexene.
