Step by step solution

01

IUPAC names of compounds

The systematic naming of an organic compound according to IUPAC rules consists of the following parts:

Prefix+rootword+suffix

The prefix represents the substituents, the root word represents the longest carbon chain in the compound, and the suffix represents the functional group of the compound.

02

Subpart (a)

This ether has a chain of 2 carbon atoms and a chain with 4 carbon atoms.

This means that there are ethyl side chains and butyl side chains.

The name of this compound will be butyl-ethyl-ether.

b) This ether has a chain of 2 carbon atoms and a chain with 3 carbon atoms.

This means that there are ethyl side chains and propyl side chains.

The name of this compound will be ethyl-propyl-ether.

c) This ether has a chain of 2 carbon atoms and a chain with 1 carbon atom.

This means that there are ethyl side chains and methyl side chains.

The name of this compound will be ethyl-methyl-ether.

03

Step 3:Subpart (b)

This ether has a chain of 2 carbon atoms and a chain with 3 carbon atoms.

This means that there are ethyl side chains and propyl side chains.

The name of this compound will be ethyl-propyl-ether.

04

Step 4:Subpart (c)

This ether has a chain of 2 carbon atoms and a chain with 1 carbon atom.

This means that there are ethyl side chains and methyl side chains.

The name of this compound will be ethyl-methyl-ether.
