Answer:

2-Methyl Propanol

Explanation:

Reason:

  • Methyl group is present at 2nd carbon
  • There is an -OH group present at 1st carbon (Functional groups have higher priority in IUPAC naming.) the secondary suffix will be '-ol'
  • There are no double bonds but since 2 vowels can't be together the suffix will be '-an'
  • Longest carbon chain is of 3 carbon atoms long. Word root will be 'Prop-'

NOTE

( Secondary Prefix + Primary Prefix + Word Root + 1° suffix + 2° suffix)

( Substituents  + Cyclo/bicyclo + Carbon atom number + saturation(double triple bond)    + Functional group )
