Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Possible constitutional isomers have to be determined for the given propene molecule and needed to be given the systematic name for the isomer.

Concept introduction:

  • Constitutional isomers are isomers, which are having the same molecular formula and different bond connectivity between the atoms.
  • IUPAC nomenclature: systematic has given for the organic compound by following certain rules, which are assigned by IUPAC (International Union and Pure Applied Chemistry).

IUPACname=prefix+wordroot+suffix

  • Word root: word root of the name indicates the parent carbon chain (longest carbon chain) present in the molecule.
  • Prefix: prefix part in IUPAC name indicates the substituents present on the parent carbon chain.
  • Suffix: suffix indicates that any function group present in the molecule.

To draw: the constitutional isomer for the molecule propene.
