Chapter B, Problem B.37P

Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The structure of fluorobenzene is to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

Benzene derivatives have one or more substituents attached to the benzene ring. In such compounds, the root name is benzene. The ring is numbered so that the substituents attached to it get the lowest locator numbers. Prefixes and locator numbers are used for writing the number and type of substituents.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The structure of $\text{1-chloro-2-fluorobenzene}$ is to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

Benzene derivatives have one or more substituents attached to the benzene ring. In such compounds, the root name is benzene. The ring is numbered so that the substituents attached to it get the lowest locator numbers. Prefixes and locator numbers are used for writing the number and type of substituents.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The structure of $\text{1-iodo-4-nitrobenzene}$ is to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

Benzene derivatives have one or more substituents attached to the benzene ring. In such compounds, the root name is benzene. The ring is numbered so that the substituents attached to it get the lowest locator numbers. Prefixes and locator numbers are used for writing the number and type of substituents.

Interpretation Introduction

(d)

Interpretation:

The structure of $\text{1, 3-dibromobenzene}$ is to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

Benzene derivatives have one or more substituents attached to the benzene ring. In such compounds, the root name is benzene. The ring is numbered so that the substituents attached to it get the lowest locator numbers. Prefixes and locator numbers are used for writing the number and type of substituents.

Interpretation Introduction

(e)

Interpretation:

The structure of $\text{2, 3-dimethyl-1-cyclopentylbenzene}$ is to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

Benzene derivatives have one or more substituents attached to the benzene ring. In such compounds, the root name is benzene. The ring is numbered so that the substituents attached to it get the lowest locator numbers. Prefixes and locator numbers are used for writing the number and type of substituents.

Interpretation Introduction

(f)

Interpretation:

The structure of $\text{4-ethoxy-1, 2-dinitrobenzene}$ is to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

Benzene derivatives have one or more substituents attached to the benzene ring. In such compounds, the root name is benzene. The ring is numbered so that the substituents attached to it get the lowest locator numbers. Prefixes and locator numbers are used for writing the number and type of substituents.
