Chapter E, Problem E.4P

Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The structure of $\text{4, 4-dibromocyclohexanamine }$ is to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

The IUPAC name of the compound is made up of three parts. The suffix amine shows that the highest priority functional group is amine $-{\text{NH}}_{\text{2}}$ with a number indicating its location on the root. The middle part of the name shows the number of carbon atoms in the longest continuous chain of carbon atoms that forms the root. The prefix lists the substituents, the lower priority groups, in alphabetical order, preceded by the locant of each one. If more than one of the same substituent is present, then the number is indicated by a prefix di-, tri-, etc. added to its name. The locant number(s) for this substituent is also repeated the same number of times.
