The correct Answer is:
To determine the IUPAC name of the given compound, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the Functional Groups The compound has two functional groups: - An aldehyde group (–CHO) - A nitrile group (–C≡N) ### Step 2: Determine the Priority of Functional Groups According to IUPAC nomenclature rules, the nitrile group (C≡N) has a higher priority than the aldehyde group (–CHO). Therefore, the nitrile group will be treated as the suffix, while the aldehyde group will be treated as a substituent. ### Step 3: Count the Carbon Atoms We need to count the total number of carbon atoms in the longest continuous chain that includes the nitrile group. The structure indicates that there are 4 carbon atoms in total. ### Step 4: Name the Parent Chain Since there are 4 carbon atoms in the longest chain, the parent hydrocarbon is "butane." Because the nitrile group is present, we will use the suffix "nitrile," leading to "butanenitrile." ### Step 5: Identify and Name the Substituents - There is a methyl group (–CH₃) attached to the second carbon. - There is a formyl group (–CHO) attached to the fourth carbon. ### Step 6: Assign Locants to the Substituents We need to assign locants to the substituents based on the numbering of the parent chain: - The methyl group is at position 2. - The formyl group is at position 4. ### Step 7: Combine the Names We will combine the names of the substituents with the parent chain name. The correct order is to list the substituents in alphabetical order: - Methyl (2-methyl) - Formyl (4-formyl) Thus, the IUPAC name of the compound is: **2-methyl-4-formylbutanenitrile** ### Final Answer The IUPAC name of the given compound is **2-methyl-4-formylbutanenitrile**. ---
