Answers
Answer:
IUPAC name is 2,2-dimethyl pentane
IUPAC name for this compound 2,2 - dimethyl pentane
Explanation:
The basic rules for naming alkene are :
First select the longest possible carbon chain.
For the number of carbon atom, we add prefix as 'meth' for 1, 'eth' for 2, 'prop' for 3, 'but' for 4, 'pent' for 5, 'hex' for 6, 'sept' for 7, 'oct' for 8, 'nona' for 9 and 'deca' for 10.
A suffix '-ane' is added at the end of the name.
The numbering is done in such a way that first carbon of double bond gets the lowest number.
If two of more similar alkyl groups are present, then the words 'di', 'tri' 'tetra' and so on are used to specify the number of times these alkyl groups appear in the chain.
