The structure for
Concept introduction:
Trivial names like toluene and anisole have been adopted by the IUPAC system. If these compounds are present in a structure, the root is used as toluene or anisole respectively. The root in such compounds specifies the position of the methyl group as C1 in toluene, and the methoxy group in anisole. Other substituents attached to the benzene ring are indicated by using locator numbers or the prefixes like ortho, meta, and para.
