b. 3,5-dimethyl-2-hexene

Accepted Answer

Hello everyone in this video we have to first draw the structure for three S. Apropo for metal hex to in And then we're wondering if it has any stereo Somers. So first let's go ahead and break apart this big name here and draw this compound. So first clue is to look at the end of the name of a molecule because it contains our parent chain. So it's sort of laying a foundation. So this year we have a prefix of hex hex indicates that we have six carbons. So this girl had drought that parent chain. So it will be something like this. So we have one, 2345 and six. So that fulfills the hex part of it. Now we see a two in. That means starting at our second carbon, we have a double bond. So our second carbon is right here. That means we have a double bond starting there. So we'll have this double bond drawn in. So we have the two in cross stuff. Now for our substitue ints. So first we can start with the three isopropyl. So that means on our third carbon we have an isopropyl group. Let's go ahead and draw those in. So we have this sort of wide looking shape on our third carbon. Now for our four metal, it means on our fourth carbon, we have a methyl group. Alright, so four carbon is right over here in sort of the center we just add a branch there. Alright, so we've drawn the whole structure for three isopropyl for metal hex to in. Now this question is being asked if we have a new stereo I Summers. So there's a big hint here, since we have a carbon carbon bond, we can sort of look at that as the center, we can see that we can have a system trans I summer because all four groups attached to this double bond is different. So, to answer the question formally, you can say yes, there is a CIS and Trans Summer. Alright, so again, we have drawn the structure of the molecule and we've answered that it does have stereo Somers.
