Give the IUPAC name of the following compounds. If more than one compound is a possible to name all of them.
i. An aldehyde derived from ethane.
ii. A ketone derived from butane.
iii. A chloride derived from propane.
iv. An alcohol derived from pentane.
i. Ethanal
Explanation: For an aldehyde, we have to add the suffix “—al”. Thus, IUPAC name of an aldehyde derived from ethane will be ethanal.
ii. Butanone
Explanation: For a ketone, we have to add the suffix “—one”. Thus, IUPAC name of a ketone derived from butane will be butanone.
iii. Chlropropane
Explanation: For a chloride, we have to add the prefix “chloro-”. Thus, IUPAC name of a chloride derived from propane will be chlropropane.
iv. Pentanol
Explanation: For an alcohol, we have to add the suffix “—ol”. Thus, IUPAC name of a ketone derived from butane will be butanone.
