Question

(B) The given structure is $CH_3-CH(C_2H_5)-CH(CH_3)-CH_2-CH(C_2H_5)-CH_3$. Expanding the structure: $CH_3-CH_2-CH(CH_3)-CH(CH_3)-CH_2-CH(CH_3)-CH_2-C

Vedclass · Accepted Answer

$3,4,6-trimethyloctane$

Vedclass · Answer

(B) The given structure is $CH_3-CH(C_2H_5)-CH(CH_3)-CH_2-CH(C_2H_5)-CH_3$. Expanding the structure: $CH_3-CH_2-CH(CH_3)-CH(CH_3)-CH_2-CH(CH_3)-CH_2-CH_3$. The longest carbon chain contains $8$ carbon atoms,so the parent alkane is octane. Numbering from the left gives substituents at positions $3, 4, 6$. Numbering from the right gives substituents at positions $3, 5, 6$. Comparing the locant sets $(3, 4, 6)$ and $(3, 5, 6)$,the set $(3, 4, 6)$ is lower. Therefore,the correct $IUPAC$ name is $3,4,6-trimethyloctane$.

What will be the $IUPAC$ name of the given compound $CH_3-CH(CH_2-CH_3)-CH(CH_3)-CH_2-CH(CH_2-CH_3)-CH_3$?
