Please name this using current IUPAC naming rules. I know that if a benzene is not part of the parent structure then it is called a phenyl so so it would be a 2-chloro-4-phenylpent-1-ene? But i really am not confident and might be completely wrong and maybe the benzene might be part of the parent structure thanks for the help

A- Both alkenes and alkynes are nucleophiles in addition reactions.
B- Alkenes that are sensitive to rearrangement can be hydrated indirectly using Hg²⁺ as the hydration catalyst followed by reduction.

D- All these statements are true.
E- None of these statements are true.
Chemistry

- Phineas and Ferbs, two brothers who enjoy vacations, doing fun things every summer. This summer the brothers and their friends carry out an organic synthesis with an unknown compound (L1) that contains 52% Carbon, 6% Hydrogen and 42% bromine, this compound (L1) is treated with magnesium in ether to obtain L2 , which reacts violently with D2O for 1-methyl cyclohexene with a deuterium atom in the methyl group (L3). The L2 reaction is treated with acetone followed by hydrolysis to give L4. Heating L4 with concentrated sulfuric acid gives L5, which decolors the bromine, obtaining L6. L5 undergoes hydrogenation with excess hydrogen and platinum as a catalyst giving rise to isobutyl cyclohexane.
