Problem 3-8
Draw the structures of the following compounds.
a. 4-(1,1-dimethylethyl)octane
b. 5-(1,2,2-trimethylpropyl)nonane
C. 3,3-diethyl-4-(2,2-dimethylpropyl)octane
Problem 3-9
Without looking at the structures, give molecular formulas for
the compounds in Problem 3-8 (a) and (b). Use the names
of the groups to determine the number of carbon atoms; then
use the (2n + 2) rule.
