Chapter F, Problem F.15P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The structure of the given molecule is to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

The structure of a compound is drawn from its IUPAC name. The IUPAC name is made up of three parts, prefix, root, and suffix. The suffix indicates the highest priority functional group present in the structure. Its location is written as a prefix for the functional group name, unless redundant. The root is the longest continuous carbon chain or the largest ring that includes the highest priority functional group. Any other functional groups present are listed alphabetically as prefixes along with their locants. For cyclic compounds, the numbering starts from that carbon where the highest priority group is attached.

If any chiral carbons are present, their absolute configurations are specified at the start, along with the carbon number, if necessary. Similarly, the stereochemistry (E/Z) of any double bond is also specified at the start. A di, tri, etc., before a prefix or suffix, indicates the number of instances of that functional group.
