Concept introduction: As per IUPAC recommendations longest chain found in a continuous manner in a branched molecule is chosen as parent chain.

The IUPAC name begins with prefix to designate the number of C atoms in the longest chosen parent alkane followed by the suffix −ane. The positions of side chains or substituents are indicated by lowest numeral places before prefix.

Names of branches that occur commonly as side chains are listed below:

1 The structural prefix s- or sec- (for secondary-) and t- to tert- (for tertiary-) maybe incorporated in a name to designate a specific secondary or tertiary alkyl group, respectively. If no isomeric alkyl group of the same classification are possible. These prefixes are underlined italics and separated from the rest of the name by hyphens. The alkyl group represented by formula H3C CH2 CH3 CH3 Xs named as The parent chain in the compound Contains C atoms hence the alkene name for this parent chain is properly numbered. The functional group is assigned the position number the position number. functional group is When the parent chain is and the substituents are assigned - The complete designation of the parent chain, including the position of the and - The complete name of the formula is 1,2-dienes are classified as cumulated dienes, 1,3-dienes are conjugated dienes, and dienes that are separated by one or more sp' hybridized carbon isolated dienes. 3…
