The correct Answer is:
To determine which name is not correctly written in front of the compound, we need to analyze each option based on IUPAC nomenclature rules for organic compounds. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Compounds**: We need to look at the names provided and identify the structure they represent. - **Option A**: Chloro-1-phenylmethane - **Option B**: Bromo-1,1-dibromo-1-phenylmethane - **Option C**: Chloro-4-phenylmethane - **Option D**: 1-chloro-2-phenylmethane 2. **Analyze Each Name**: - **Option A**: Chloro-1-phenylmethane - This name suggests a chloro group is attached to a phenylmethane at the first carbon. This is a valid name. - **Option B**: Bromo-1,1-dibromo-1-phenylmethane - This name suggests multiple bromo groups on the first carbon of phenylmethane. However, the correct way to write it should not have "bromo" before "1,1-dibromo". This is incorrect nomenclature. - **Option C**: Chloro-4-phenylmethane - This name suggests a chloro group is attached to the fourth carbon of phenylmethane. This is also a valid name. - **Option D**: 1-chloro-2-phenylmethane - This name indicates a chloro group on the first carbon and a phenyl group on the second carbon. This is a valid name as well. 3. **Conclusion**: - The name that is not correctly written is **Option B**: Bromo-1,1-dibromo-1-phenylmethane, as it incorrectly combines the prefixes and does not follow the correct IUPAC naming conventions. ### Final Answer: The name that is not correctly written in front of the compound is **Option B: Bromo-1,1-dibromo-1-phenylmethane**.
