Magazine Chapter 10: Q2P-f (page 290)
Draw structures corresponding to the following IUPAC names: (f) 1,1-Dibromo-4-tert-butylcyclohexane.
Short Answer
(f)The structure of the compound (f) is given below:
Step by step solution
Alkyl Halides
Alkyl halides are also known as haloalkanes or halogenoalkanes. They contains one or more halogen substituents i.e. 鈥揃r, -Cl,-I,-F.
Rules for nomenclature of Alkyl halides
IUPAC rules used for naming of Alkyl halides
- Select longest carbon chain, it is the parent chain;
- Longest chain must contain double or triple bond, if present;
- Number the alkyl or halo substituent carbon i.e. it should possess lowest number in the parent chain;
- Assign a number to each substituent;
- Write the name of substituent鈥檚 in alphabetical order while naming;
Structure of alkyl halides
(f) As the chemical name indicates, that the given alkyl halide is a cyclic hexane, which means it has six carbon atoms in the cyclic form.
It is having three substituents i.e one tert-butyl group and two bromo groups, so they will be assigned position alphabetically.
The preference will be given to bromo group. The carbon containing bromo group will be numbered as 1 and tert-butyl group is attached on carbon number 4.
Thus, the given compound has following structure:
