The correct Answer is:
To determine the IUPAC name of the given molecule, we will follow the systematic approach for naming organic compounds. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Longest Carbon Chain**: - The first step is to identify the longest continuous carbon chain in the molecule. In this case, the longest chain consists of 5 carbon atoms. - **Hint**: Look for the longest unbroken chain of carbon atoms to determine the root name. 2. **Determine the Root Name**: - Since the longest chain has 5 carbon atoms, the root name is "pent". - **Hint**: The root name corresponds to the number of carbon atoms in the longest chain (e.g., "pent" for 5). 3. **Identify Functional Groups**: - The molecule contains a carboxylic acid group (-COOH) and a ketone group (C=O). The carboxylic acid group has the highest priority. - **Hint**: Functional groups have different priorities; carboxylic acids take precedence over ketones. 4. **Number the Carbon Chain**: - Number the carbon chain starting from the end nearest to the carboxylic acid group. This gives the carboxylic carbon the number 1. - The numbering will be: - C1: -COOH (carboxylic acid) - C2: C=O (ketone) - C3: CH - C4: CH - C5: CH3 - **Hint**: Always number the chain to give the highest priority functional group the lowest possible number. 5. **Identify Substituents**: - There are two methyl groups attached to the second and third carbon atoms. - **Hint**: Substituents are named and their positions indicated by numbers. 6. **Construct the Name**: - Combine the information: - The substituents are "2,3-dimethyl". - The root name is "pent". - The functional groups are "4-oxo" (the ketone) and "1-oic" (the carboxylic acid). - The full name is: **4-oxo-2,3-dimethylpentanoic acid**. - **Hint**: The order of naming is: substituents, root name, functional groups. ### Final Answer: The IUPAC name of the molecule is **4-oxo-2,3-dimethylpentanoic acid**.

To determine the IUPAC name of the given molecule, we will follow the systematic approach for naming organic compounds. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Longest Carbon Chain**: - The first step is to identify the longest continuous carbon chain in the molecule. In this case, the longest chain consists of 5 carbon atoms. - **Hint**: Look for the longest unbroken chain of carbon atoms to determine the root name. ...
