A level chem naming isomers
1 answer:
Answer:
Butan-1-ol or Butanol
2-methylpropan-2-ol
2-methylpropan-1-ol
Butan-2-ol
Explanation:
Data Give:
Three Isomers are given
names of These =?
Details:
Isomers:
Isomers are those chemical compounds that have same molecular formula but different structures.
In the given question the compound have same molecular formula that is C₄H₉OH but the structures are different.
So due to different structures they are named differently.
The 1st and last one are straight Chains and the other 2 are branched. all the structure have four carbon atoms, one OH group and 9 hydrogen atoms.
Names are given in attachment
butan-1-ol or Butanol
As it contain 4 carbon atoms an -OH group is attached at position 1.
________________
2-methylpropan-2-ol
In this -OH and -CH₃ is attached on carbon 2
_____________
2-methylpropan-1-ol
In this -CH₃ attached at position 2 and -OH is attached on Carbon 1.
______________
Butan-2-ol
In this 4 carbons are in straight chain and a -OH group is attached on position 2 of carbon
