The IUPAC name of the compound is Ethyl 2-bromopropanoate.
The naming has been done as follows -
- The longest carbon chain is selected, which in this case has 3 carbons, hence the name propane.
- Next, the functional groups present are ester and halide (bromine).
- Going by the priority order of functional groups for nomenclature, the suffix will be for ester and the prefix will be for halide.
- Also we, have one more carbon chain of 2 carbon atoms, thus naming it ethyl.
- We will start numbering from 1st carbon so that Bromine gets the least number.
- Thus, we get Bromine on number 2 carbon.
Finally, we get,
Ethyl 2 - bromo - propane - enoate
Combining we get,
Ethyl 2-bromopropanoate is the IUPAC name.
