The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of identifying which organic compound name is not correctly written, we will analyze each option step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze the First Compound 1. **Compound Structure**: The first compound is a benzene derivative with a formyl group (CHO), a methoxy group (OCH3), and a hydroxyl group (OH). 2. **Identify the Functional Groups**: The highest priority functional group is the aldehyde (CHO), which dictates the suffix. 3. **Numbering the Carbon Chain**: The numbering starts from the carbon of the aldehyde (1), followed by the methoxy and hydroxyl groups. 4. **Naming**: The correct name is 4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde. This name is correctly written. ### Step 2: Analyze the Second Compound 1. **Compound Structure**: The second compound is cyclohexane with a carboxaldehyde group (CHO) and a methyl group (CH3). 2. **Identify the Functional Groups**: The main functional group is the aldehyde (CHO). 3. **Numbering the Carbon Chain**: Start numbering from the aldehyde carbon (1). The methyl group is on carbon 3. 4. **Naming**: The correct name should be 3-methylcyclohexanal. However, it is incorrectly written as 5-methyl. This is the incorrect name. ### Step 3: Analyze the Third Compound 1. **Compound Structure**: The third compound has a chloro group (Cl) and an aldehyde group (CHO). 2. **Identify the Functional Groups**: The main functional group is the aldehyde. 3. **Numbering the Carbon Chain**: The numbering starts from the aldehyde carbon (1), with the chloro group on carbon 2. 4. **Naming**: The correct name is 2-chlorophenyl ethanol. This name is correctly written. ### Step 4: Analyze the Fourth Compound 1. **Compound Structure**: The fourth compound has a long carbon chain with double bonds and a ketone group. 2. **Identify the Functional Groups**: The main functional group is the ketone. 3. **Numbering the Carbon Chain**: The longest chain is numbered to give the lowest numbers to the double bonds and the ketone. 4. **Naming**: The correct name is 3-pentene-1,4-dione. This name is correctly written. ### Conclusion After analyzing all four compounds, the second compound's name is incorrectly written as it should be 3-methylcyclohexanal instead of 5-methyl. ### Final Answer The compound whose name is not correctly written is the second one. ---
