Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The structure for the given IUPAC name is to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

In naming ester, the alkyl group is cited first followed by the carboxylate group separated by a space. Thus, the general form of the ester name is alkyl alkanoate. The alkyl group bonded to the oxygen atom in ester and alkanoate is a part of the carbonyl group. ‘alkan’ is the root name and the suffix ‘oate’ is added to the root name for the functional group ester. The root name in the IUPAC name ‘alkan’ is derived from the analogous alkane having the same number of carbon atoms. The substituents are attached to the desired carbon number according to the locator in the IUPAC name. The prefix indicates the number of same substituents in the molecule.
