(a)
Interpretation:
The following molecule should be named:
Concept Introduction:
Ethers are molecules which have two alkyl groups bonded to the oxygen atom.
Simple ethers named based on their structure.
In ether nomenclature, both alkyl groups are named and arranged them according to the alphabetical order and at the end of the name word 'ether' should be added. Ethers which have identical alkyl groups, prefix di- should be added to the alkyl group.
When naming more complex ethers according to the
(b)
Interpretation:
The following molecule should be named:
Concept Introduction:
Organic compounds which contains a sulfhydryl group (SH) bonded to a tetrahedral carbon is known as thiols. In the periodic table, sulfur is placed directly below to the oxygen, thiols can be considered as sulfur analogs of alcohols.
When naming the thiols, parent hydrocarbon is named as alkane and at the end -thiol suffix should be added. Main carbon chain is numbered by giving the SH group the lower number.
