Question

What are the names of the compounds below?

Answer 1

#1

Here the functional group attached is OH(Alcohol) so we need to use -ol suffix

• There are total 6 carbons in the straight chain .
• Naming should be started from functional group.
• At max there can be 4carbons in the chain then on left hand side

Right hand side is 2 carboned substituent i.e it's ethyl group

Hence the naming is

• 2-ethyl-2-methyl butanol

#2

Start numbering from alcohol towards left end .

• 4 carbons chain
• Pent prefix to be used

The name is

• 3-methyl-butanol

#3

O is at centre and two methyl groups are branched both sides

• Methoxy Methane

#4

O is at centre,left side propane ,right side methane

• Propoxy ethane

#5

Left side ethane,Centred O,Right side methyl.

• Ethoxy methane
