(a)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: The correct or possible structure and naming for the given incorrect structure.

Interpretation: The correct or possible structure and naming for the given incorrect structure is to be stated.

Concept introduction: The rules for the naming of alkanes are stated below.

  • Firstly the longest carbon chain is chosen and the naming of chain is done accordingly to the number of carbon atoms that are present in the chain.
  • Numbering of the chain is done in such a way that the substituent groups are placed at the lowest position.
  • Naming of substituent groups is done by the replacing of –ane with –yl.
  • If different types of substituent groups are present then they are written in an alphabetical order.
  • If a substituent is present more than one time then prefixes like di, tri, tetra are used depending on the number of times that particular substituent group appears in the chain.
