Answer:
The answer to your question is below
Explanation:
Process
1.- Look for the longest chain
2.- Number the carbons of the main chain starting from the corner where the double bond is closer.
3.- Circle the branches
4.- Start naming the number where the branch is and the name of the branch.
5.- Name the main branch with the ending -ene.
5-methyl, 1-hexene or 5-methyl, hex-1-ene
See gthe structure below.
The compound given (i.e. 3,3-dimethyl-1-butanol) is primary alcohol (1°) because the functional group (-OH) shows that it is alcohol is attached to a primary carbon (i.e terminal carbon).
The oxidation of all primary alcohols results in the formation of aliphatic aldehyde(also known as alkanal).
Suppose, it is secondary alcohol;
The oxidation of secondary alcohol results in the formation of ketone(also known as alkanone).
When 3,3-dimethyl-1-butanol undergoes oxidation, the suffix "ol" in the alcohol changes to "al"
Therefore, 3,3-dimethyl-1-butanol changes to 3,3-dimethyl-1-butanal after undergoing oxidation.
In conclusion, the product when 3,3-dimethyl-1-butanol undergoes oxidation is: 3,3-dimethylbutanal.
As such, option 2 is correct.
