The common names and structural formulas of a few aldehydes follow. Provide an IUPAC name.

Sample Solution (a) Don’t be fooled by the fact that the common name is isobutyraldehyde. The longest continuous chain has three carbons, and so the base name is propanal. There is a methyl group at C-2; thus the compound is 2-methylpropanal.
