Question
**Organic Chemistry: Naming Compounds**

**Objective:** Name the following compounds.

**Compounds:**

**A**
![Compound A](diagram)
- Description: The compound has an epoxide ring with a chiral center. Attached to the chiral center is a methyl group.

**B**
![Compound B](diagram)
- Description: This compound contains an epoxide ring with a bromine atom attached to one of the carbons of the ring.

**C**
![Compound C](diagram)
- Description: An epoxide ring with a nitro group (NO₂) attached to one of the carbons and an ethyl group on another carbon.

**Instructions:**

1. Identify the functional groups present in each compound.
2. Determine the IUPAC name for each compound by following the standard nomenclature rules for organic chemistry.
   
**Discussion Points:**
- Discuss the importance of stereochemistry in determining the correct name of the compounds.
- Explain the steps involved in identifying substituents and numbering the carbon chain for naming purposes.
