MediumGive the $IUPAC$ name of $(CH_3)_3CCH(CH_3)CH_2CH_3$.
(N/A) The given structure is $(CH_3)_3CCH(CH_3)CH_2CH_3$.
To find the $IUPAC$ name,we identify the longest carbon chain,which contains $6$ carbons (hexane).
Numbering the chain from the end that gives the substituents the lowest possible locants,we get substituents at positions $2, 2,$ and $3$.
Thus,the $IUPAC$ name is $3, 4, 4$-trimethylhexane. (Note: The provided image in the prompt corresponds to a different structure,$3$-ethyl-$2, 2$-dimethylpentane).
