Interpretation:
The name of the given compound is to be identified.
Concept introduction:
In chemical nomenclature, the
The parent chain is the longest continuous chain of carbon atoms.
The parent chain is numbered from the end thatis closest to the substituent.
If the same substituent occurs more than once, the location of each point on which the substituent occurs is given.
If there are two or more different substituents, they are listed in alphabetical order using the base name.
The name of the
