Answer #1

Answer :

Correct IUPAC name = 1,1-dibromo-3-tert-butylcyclohexane.

Cyclohexane is the main ring here undoubtedly.

Now , numbering of ring will start from the carbon containing 2 bromine not from the carbon containing tert-butyl . This is because numbering of ring should start from that carbon which contain maximum number of side chains .

Also, in writing the name of side chain we should follow alphabetical order . dibromo in alphabetical order comes first than tert-butyl . So, name of the given compound will be = 1,1-dibromo-3-tert-butylcyclohexane.
