Q7.1:
Write IUPAC names of the following compounds:
Write IUPAC names of the following compounds:
Solution :
1. Analysis of Structure (i)
Structure provided: $CH_3 - CH_2 - CH(OH) - CH_2 - CH_2 - CH_3$
- Longest Carbon Chain: The chain consists of 6 carbon atoms [Hexane derivative].
- Functional Group Position: The hydroxyl ($-OH$) group is attached to the 3rd carbon atom.
- Numbering: Numbering from the left gives the $-OH$ group position 3. Numbering from the right also gives it position 4. To minimize the locant, we use the left-to-right path [Per IUPAC Nomenclature Rules for Alcohols].
IUPAC Name: Hexan-3-ol
2. Analysis of Structure (ii)
Structure provided: $(CH_3)_2CH - CH(OH) - CH_2 - CH_3$
- Expanded Form: $CH_3 - CH(CH_3) - CH(OH) - CH_2 - CH_3$
- Longest Carbon Chain: The parent chain contains 5 carbon atoms [Pentane derivative].
- Substituent: A methyl group ($-CH_3$) is present at the 4th position if numbered from the $-OH$ side, or the 2nd position if numbered from the left. Assigning the lowest locant to the functional group ($-OH$):
- Right to Left: $OH$ at $C_2$, $CH_3$ at $C_4$.
- Left to Right: $OH$ at $C_3$, $CH_3$ at $C_2$.
IUPAC Name: 4-Methylpentan-2-ol
3. Analysis of Structure (iii)
Structure provided: $CH_3 - CH_2 - CH_2 - CH_2 - CH(OH) - CH_2 - CH_3$
- Longest Carbon Chain: The chain contains 7 carbon atoms [Heptane derivative].
- Functional Group Position: The $-OH$ group is at the 3rd carbon when numbering from the right.
IUPAC Name: Heptan-3-ol
4. Analysis of Structure (iv)
Structure provided: $CH_3 - C(CH_3)_2 - CH_2 - CH(OH) - CH_3$
- Longest Carbon Chain: 5 carbons [Pentane].
- Substituents: Two methyl groups at position 4.
- Functional Group: Hydroxyl at position 2.
IUPAC Name: 4,4-Dimethylpentan-2-ol
Visual Representation of IUPAC Priority
Final Solution:
| Compound | IUPAC Name |
|---|---|
| (i) | Hexan-3-ol |
| (ii) | 4-Methylpentan-2-ol |
| (iii) | Heptan-3-ol |
| (iv) | 4,4-Dimethylpentan-2-ol |
