Interpretation: The acceptable names for the given compounds are to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
• The hydrocarbon is named after the longest carbon chain.
• The parent hydrocarbon containing ester group is named with suffix “ate”.
• The alkyl group bonded to oxygen through single bond forms the first part of the ester and alkyl group bonded to carbonyl group forms the second part.
Answer to Problem 22.38P
The acceptable name of the compound A is
Explanation of Solution
The given compound A is,
Figure 1
The red coloured ball has two bonds. So, this is the oxygen atom. The black coloured atoms have four single bonds. So, these are the carbon atoms. The grey coloured balls have one bond. So, these are the hydrogen atoms. The molecular structure of the compound is,
Figure 2
This compound contains ester group. The alkyl group attached to carbonyl group has longest chain of three carbon atoms with two methyl groups substituted at the second carbon atom. The alkyl group bonded to oxygen through single bond has longest chain of three carbon atoms with one methyl group substituted at the second carbon atom. The acceptable name of the compound is
The given compound B is,
Figure 3
The blue coloured ball has three bonds. So, this is the nitrogen atom. The black coloured atoms have four bonds. So, these are the carbon atoms. The grey coloured balls have one bond. So, these are the hydrogen atoms. The molecular structure of the compound is,

Interpretation: The products formed on treatment of A or B with given reagents: [1]
Concept introduction: The metal hydride reagents are good reducing agents such as
When the esters and nitriles are hydrolyzed to carboxylic acids in acidic medium and in basic medium carboxylate ions are formed.
Grignard reagents are organometallic compounds which are prepared using alkyl halides in the presence of magnesium metal in dry ether. These reagents act as strong nucleophiles and bases.
