Question

Transcribed Image Text:### Question 16.b of 25
#### Classify and Describe the Properties of the Following Nitrogen Containing Compound.
Provide a systematic name for this structure.
The image shows a chemical structure of an organic compound featuring a nitrogen atom (N) bonded to two carbon chains.
##### Available Prefixes and Suffixes:
- **N-**
- **1-**
- **N,N,-**
- **N,N-**
- **2-**
- **tri**
- **bi**
- **di**
- **eth**
- **hex**
- **prop**
- **but**
- **pent**
- **meth**
The systematic name can be constructed by appropriately combining these prefixes and suffixes according to IUPAC (International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry) nomenclature rules for organic compounds. The structure appears to be a derivative of a hydrocarbon chain with nitrogen (N) substituents.

Transcribed Image Text:### Organic Chemistry Naming Task
#### Question 15.b of 25
**Task:**
Classify and describe the properties of the following nitrogen-containing compound.
**Requirement:**
Provide a systematic name for this structure.
**Displayed Structure:**
The structure shows a 2-dimensional chemical representation of a nitrogen-containing compound. The molecular structure displays a chain with five carbon atoms (a pentyl chain). The nitrogen (N) atom is bonded to the second carbon atom, along with a methyl (CH₃) group and a hydrogen (H) atom.
**Key Components to Identify:**
- A nitrogen atom (N)
- A methyl group (CH₃) attached to nitrogen
- A five-carbon chain
**Name Components Provided for Selection:**
1- , 2-, N,N-, N,N,N-, 4-, N-
tert-, n-, di, sec-, tri-
hex, pent, but
### Detailed Explanation
To figure out the systematic name for the compound, consider the following:
1. **Identify the longest carbon chain which involves the nitrogen.**
2. **Determine the position of the nitrogen atom in the chain.**
3. **Name the substituent groups attached to the nitrogen atom.**
Given the structure:
- The longest carbon chain attached to nitrogen has 5 carbon atoms, which corresponds to "pent."
- The nitrogen is bonded to the second carbon atom in this chain.
- A methyl group (CH₃) is bonded to the nitrogen.
Based on these observations, the systematic name can be constructed using IUPAC naming conventions.
**Final Systematic Name:**
The name for this nitrogen-containing compound is N-Methylpentan-2-amine.
