Hi there,
No, we can choose it from any side we will get the same parent chain.

Hey friend!!!

Your answer is correct it's 4 (1' methyl, ethyl) heptane.

While nomenclature you need to take care of the following things :

◆ The longest chain of carbon is chosen to be the parent chain.
If the compound contains multiple bonds then the longest chain is chosen in such a way that it includes the multiple bond.

◆If there are more than one ways of choosing the longest chain, choose the chain which has most number of branchings

◆The alkyle group, multiple bonds and functional group are assigned the lowest number.
Priority order is
Functional group > multiple bond > alkyl group


HOPE IT HELPS.... :-)

Thank You
