Textbook Question
Chapter 22, Problem 7TE
Shown below is the structure of 2-methyl-pentane. What is the structure of 3-methyl-pentane?
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
The structure of 3-methyl-pentane.
Answer to Problem 7TE
The structure of 3-methyl-pentane is
Explanation of Solution
According to IUPAC nomenclature-
Long chain selection-here pentane is the long chain because it contains five carbon chain (pent-five).
Numbering preference- priority is given to the side where functional group or any substituent is attached.In thisstructure, there is no other group so start the numbering can be done from either side.
Placement of substituents-methyl group is a substituent and placed it at 3rd position.
Conclusion:
Therefore, the structure of 3-methyl-pentane is
