Answer: Option B. -> 5, 5-Bis(1,1-dimethylpropyl)-2-methyldecane
:
B
Decide the parent chain and give the numbering so that more substituted substituent will get the least number.
parent chain
10 carbons ⇒ word root ⇒ dec
single bond ⇒ suffix ⇒ ane
substituents at C5andC2
Now,
There is one more same substituent on C5
Therefore,
5,5-Bis-(1,1-dimethyl propyl)
Bis⇒ Because two same substituents are there, and a methyl group at C2⇒ 2-methyl
Therefore,
5,5-Bis-(1,1-dimethylpropyl)-2-methyldecane

Answer: Option B. -> 3-Penten-1-yne
:
B
1CH35−2CH4=3CH3−4C2≡5CH1
From lowest sum rule, we will select 1,3 and not 2,4
Five carbons⇒ word root = pent
3-Penten-1-yne
:
B
1CH35−2CH4=3CH3−4C2≡5CH1
From lowest sum rule, we will select 1,3 and not 2,4
Five carbons⇒ word root = pent
3-Penten-1-yne
Answer: Option B. -> Pent-1-en-4-yne
:
B
While naming, the double bond gets a lower number than the triple bond.
C1H2=C2H−C3H2−C4≡C5H
Wort root = pent
Pent-1-en-4-yne
Not 4-Penten-1-yne
Because, if there is a choice in numbering, the double bond is always given preferenceover the triplebond.

Answer: Option C. -> 1-Ethyl-2-Methylcyclohexane
:
C
The numbering is according to the lowest of locants, which gives us two options.
In this case, numbering happens according to alphabetical order. So ethyl group will have thelower number.
word root = hex
primary prefix = cyclo
secondary prefix = 1-Ethyl-2-methyl
primary suffix = ane
IUPAC name is
(c)1-Ethyl-2-methylcyclohexane

Answer: Option B. -> 3-Ethyl-2,3-dimethylpentane
:
B
Decide parent chain.
Numbering so that more substitutedsubstituent will get the lowest number.
Five carbons ⇒ word root = pent
single bonds = ane(suffix)
→ substituent at C2andC3
⇒ 3-ethyl-2, 3-dimethylpentane(alphabetically)
Therefore,
(b)3-Ethyl-2,3-dimethylpentane
:
B
Decide parent chain.
Numbering so that more substitutedsubstituent will get the lowest number.
Five carbons ⇒ word root = pent
single bonds = ane(suffix)
→ substituent at C2andC3
⇒ 3-ethyl-2, 3-dimethylpentane(alphabetically)
Therefore,
(b)3-Ethyl-2,3-dimethylpentane
Answer: Option D. -> 2-Chloro-2-methylpropane
:
D
The given compound tertiary butyl chloride is
It is numbered as shown.
The longest chain clearly includes 3 carbon atoms
⇒ root word = prop
primary suffix = ane
Secondary prefix = 2-chloro-2-methyl
Hence the name (systematic IUPAC) of given compound is:
(d)2-Chloro-2-methylpropane
:
D

⇒ root word = prop
primary suffix = ane
Secondary prefix = 2-chloro-2-methyl
Hence the name (systematic IUPAC) of given compound is:
(d)2-Chloro-2-methylpropane
Answer: Option A. -> 6-Ethyl-3,3-dimethylcyclohex-1-ene
:
A
In this compound, the parent chain is the one containing cycliccarbon.
Now, we number in the following way.
Because more substituted will get the lower number.
→ethyl group at C5
→Two methyl group at C3
Therefore, it will be
6-Ethyl-3-3-Dimethylcyclohex-1-ene
not
3,3-Dimethyl-6-ethylcyclohex-1-ene
Because we use alphabetical order and Di- is not considered for the alphabetical order.

Answer: Option A. -> 3-(Formylmethyl)hexanal
:
A
The given compound is:
Here we include as many -CHO groups as possible in the longest chain.Thus it is numbered as above (to give lowest possible number to the substituents -CH2−CHO).This group is namedformylmethyl.
6 carbons = hex.
Since there are no carbon - carbon multiple bonds, primary suffix = ane; secondary suffix = dial.
Hence the IUPAC name is
(a) 3 -(Formylmethyl)hexanal
Note the parentheses indicating substituted substituent.
The compound could also be named 3-propylpentanedial

Answer: Option A. -> 3-Ethyl-4,4-dimethylheptane
:
A
First, check the parent chain.
Now, give numbers such that the more substituted substituent will get the lowest number.
Parent chain
7 carbon ⇒ hept (word root)
Single bonds ⇒ ane (suffix
→ substituent at C3andC4 3-ethyl-4,4-dimethyl(alphabetically)
Therefore, 3-Ethyl-4,4-dimethylheptane
