Chapter C, Problem C.22P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The given IUPAC is to be rewritten using another way to incorporate the R and S designations.

Concept introduction:

When writing the IUPAC name of a molecule, each R and S designation can be written immediately before the first number used to locate the substituent attached to the asymmetric carbon atom. An alternate way is to write all the R and S designations together at the front of the name. The locator number for each asymmetric carbon atom must appear before its R or S designation and the designations must be separated from each other by a comma.
