Chapter 9.1, Problem 2P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The systematic name of the given alcohol has to be given and has to predict whether the alcohol is a primary, secondary or tertiary alcohol.

Concept introduction:

Nomenclature of alcohols:

  • The suffix used to denote the -OH group will be “ol” and this has to be replaced with “e” at the end of the name of the parent hydrocarbon.
  • The longest chain containing the functional group will be the parent chain.
  • While numbering the parent chain, care must be taken to number in a direction that gives the functional group suffix the lowest possible number.
  • The functional group suffix has to get the lowest possible number in the presence of a functional group suffix and a substituent.
  • There is no need to designate the position of a functional group suffix in a cyclic compound since it is assumed to be at the first position.

The alcohols can be classified according to the number of carbon atoms attached to the -OH group.
