(a)
Interpretation:
The structure of dibutyl ether should be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Common names are used to assign simple ether. In this nomenclature, both alkyl groups bonded to O atom are named in alphabetical order. Then the word ether is added to the end. If both the alkyl groups are same the prefix di- is added before the name of the alkyl group.
(b)
Interpretation:
The structure of ethyl propyl ether should be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Common names are used to assign simple ether. In this nomenclature, both alkyl groups bonded to O atom are named in alphabetical order. Then the word ether is added to the end. If both the alkyl groups are same the prefix di- is added before the name of the alkyl group.
IUPAC nomenclature is used to name more complex ethers. There the simpler alkyl group together with O atom is named as an alkoxy substituent. The −yl ending is replaced by −oxy. The remaining alkyl group is named as an alkane.
(c)
Interpretation:
The structure of 1-methoxypentane should be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Common names are used to assign simple ether. In this nomenclature, both alkyl groups bonded to O atom are named in alphabetical order. Then the word ether is added to the end. If both the alkyl groups are same the prefix di- is added before the name of the alkyl group.
IUPAC nomenclature is used to name more complex ethers. There the simpler alkyl group together with O atom is named as an alkoxy substituent. The −yl ending is replaced by −oxy. The remaining alkyl group is named as an alkane.
(d)
Interpretation:
The structure of 3-ethoxyhexane should be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Common names are used to assign simple ether. In this nomenclature, both alkyl groups bonded to O atom are named in alphabetical order. Then the word ether is added to the end. If both the alkyl groups are same the prefix di- is added before the name of the alkyl group.
IUPAC nomenclature is used to name more complex ethers. There the simpler alkyl group together with O atom is named as an alkoxy substituent. The −yl ending is replaced by −oxy. The remaining alkyl group is named as an alkane.
