The correct Answer is:
To determine the IUPAC name of the given compound, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the longest carbon chain The compound has a total of 5 carbon atoms in the main chain. We will identify the longest continuous chain of carbon atoms, which will serve as the parent hydrocarbon. ### Step 2: Identify the functional groups The compound contains two functional groups: 1. Hydroxyl group (-OH) 2. Amino group (-NH2) ### Step 3: Determine the priority of functional groups In IUPAC nomenclature, the hydroxyl group (-OH) has a higher priority than the amino group (-NH2). Therefore, we will number the carbon chain starting from the end closest to the -OH group. ### Step 4: Number the carbon chain Starting from the end nearest to the -OH group: 1. C1: -OH 2. C2: -NH2 3. C3: -C (Ethyl group) 4. C4: -C 5. C5: -C (Methyl group) ### Step 5: Identify substituents and their positions - The -OH group is on carbon 1 (1-ol). - The -NH2 group is on carbon 2 (2-amino). - The ethyl group (C2H5) is on carbon 4 (4-ethyl). ### Step 6: Combine the elements into the IUPAC name Putting it all together, we have: - The parent chain is pentane (5 carbons). - The functional groups and substituents are named and numbered as follows: 2-amino, 4-ethyl, and 1-ol. Thus, the complete IUPAC name is **2-amino-4-ethylpentan-1-ol**. ### Final Answer: **2-amino-4-ethylpentan-1-ol** ---
