Chapter E, Problem E.26P

Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The structure of the molecule that corresponds to the IUPAC name $\text{3, 3-dipropoxypentan-1-amine}$ is to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

The IUPAC name of a compound consists of three parts, prefix, root, and suffix. The root is the longest continuous carbon chain or the largest ring that bears the highest priority functional group. The suffix refers to the highest priority functional group. The functional group name suffix replaces the last ‘e’ in the root alkyl/aryl name. The root chain or ring carbons are numbered so that the highest priority group gets the lowest possible location numbers. The number is inserted between the root and the suffix unless redundant. Any other, low priority functional groups are listed alphabetically in the prefix, along with their location numbers. A prefix di, tri, etc. is used in case two or more instances of the functional group are present.

The suffix ‘ol’ refers to the alcohol functional group. The suffix ‘amino’ refers to the amine functional group.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The structure of the molecule that corresponds to the IUPAC name $\text{2},\text{3},\text{4}-\text{trichlorocyclohexanol }$ is to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

IUPAC name of a compound consists of three parts, prefix, root, and suffix. The root is the longest continuous carbon chain or the largest ring that bears the highest priority functional group. The suffix refers to the highest priority functional group. The functional group name suffix replaces the last ‘e’ in the root alkyl/aryl name. The root chain or ring carbons are numbered so that the highest priority group gets the lowest possible location numbers. The number is inserted between the root and the suffix unless redundant. Any other low priority functional groups are listed alphabetically in the prefix, along with the location numberss. A prefix di, tri, etc. is used in case two or more instances of the functional group are present.

The suffix ‘ol’ refers to the alcohol functional group. The suffix ‘amino’ refers to the amine functional group.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The structure of the molecule that corresponds to the IUPAC name $\text{3-cyclopropylpentan-1-ol}$ is to be drawn.

Concept introduction:
