Interpretation: The systematic name of the given
Concept introduction:
IUPAC naming for Alkane:
Name the main chain: Find the longest carbon chain and name the chain according to the number of carbon atoms it contains; is also the suffix part of the name.
Number the carbon atoms in the main chain: The carbons are numbered, in which the substituents must get lowest possible numbers.
Identify the substituents, and number each: The number at where substituents are present has to be noted. The substituents written as prefix.
Write the names as a single word: Use the hyphen to separate the numbers from the different prefix; commas to separate numbers. If two or more different substituents are present, arrange them in alphabetical order. If two or more identical substituents are present, use prefixes di-, tri-, tetra-, but this particular prefix should not be used for alphabetizing purpose.
