Give an acceptable IUPAC name for each of the following alkanes:
Sample Solution (a) This problem extends the preceding discussion by adding a third methyl group to 4-ethyl-3,5-dimethyloctane, the compound just described. It is, therefore, an ethyltrimethyloctane. Notice, however, that the numbering sequence needs to be changed in order to adhere to the rule of numbering from the end of the chain nearest the first branch. When numbered properly, this compound has a methyl group at C-2 as its first-appearing substituent.
We need at least 10 more requests to produce the solution.
