  ORGANIC CHEMISTRY-PRINT (LL)-W/WILEY, Chapter 4.2, Problem 4LTS

Concept Introduction:

Compounds consist of carbon and hydrogen known as hydrocarbons. Saturated hydrocarbon is known as alkane having general molecular formula CnH2n+2 .

Rules of naming alkanes are:

  1. First, choose the longest continuous chain of carbon atoms known as the parent chain and determines the base name of the alkane.
  2. The numbering of the parent chain should be done in a way that the substituents get the lowest number.
  3. The appropriate name should be given to every alkyl group and denote its position on the parent chain with the number.
  4. The alkyl groups are written in alphabetical order.
