explanation:
When naming organic compounds based on IUPAC; we take note of functional group, position of functional group.
In 2,3,4-trimethyl-3-heptanol, the functional group is hydroxyl group ( OH ). It is on position 3 (2,3,4-trimethyl<u>-</u><u>3</u><u>-</u>heptanol. Then we put it on the third carbon. Another functional group is methyl group, with three positions, 2, 3, and 4.
In 4-ethyl-4-octanol, the functional group is hydroxyl group ( OH ) which is in position 4 on the fourth carbon. Another functional group is ethyl group in position 4 on the fourth carbon. In this case, the functional groups that have same position, are put on that same carbon.
