Name each of the following compounds:

Sample Solution (a) The molecule has a tert-butyl group bonded to a nine-membered cycloalkane. It is tert-butylcyclononane. Alternatively, the tert-butyl group could be named systematically as a 1,1-dimethylethyl group, and the compound would then be named (1,1-dimethylethyl)cyclononane. Parentheses are used when necessary to avoid ambiguity. In this case the parentheses alert the reader that the locants 1,1 refer to substituents on the alkyl group and not to ring positions.
