Short Answer

Expert verified

Answer

  • Hexane
  • 2-methylpentane
  • 3-methylpentane
  • 2,2-dimethylbutane
  • 2,3-dimethylbutane

Step by step solution

01

IUPAC naming 

Rules for IUPAC naming:

  • The longest chain of carbon atoms is selected.
  • The counting is started from the carbon with maximum substitution.
  • The functional groups are given the highest priority.
02

Isomers of  C6H14

The isomers of the given compound are represented below:

Isomers of C6H14

03

Explanation

  • The IUPAC name of the first isomer is hexane as it has a linear chain.
  • The IUPAC name of the second isomer is 2-methylpentane as it has a chain of five carbons with a methyl group at the second position.
  • The IUPAC name of the third isomer is 3-methylpentane as it has a chain of five carbons with a methyl group at the third position.
  • The IUPAC name of the fourth isomer is 2,2-dimethylbutane as it has a chain of four carbons with two methyl groups at the second position.
  • The IUPAC name of the fifth isomer is 2,3-dimethylbutane as it has a chain of four carbons and two methyl groups at the second and third positions.
