Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The IUPAC name of the given molecule is to be written.

Concept introduction:

An alkane is said to be substituted if a hydrogen atom of the alkane is replaced by another atom or group of atoms. When writing the IUPAC name, the first step is to identify the longest continuous carbon chain. That chain is the root. The substituents attached to the root are marked. The chain is numbered such that the substituents get the lowest numbers. The substituents are listed in alphabetical order. Prefixes are used if there are more than one substituents of the same type. The locant number is written first, followed by a hyphen, then the name of the substituent and then the root is written.
