Identify the main carbon chain in the molecular formula CH3(CH2)2CHBrCH3. The longest chain of carbon atoms is five carbons long, which corresponds to a pentane backbone.
Number the carbon atoms in the main chain from one end to the other. It is conventional to start numbering from the end nearest to the substituent, which in this case is the bromine (Br) atom.
Place the bromine atom on the appropriate carbon atom in the chain. According to the formula, the bromine is attached to the fourth carbon atom in the chain.
Draw the structural formula by arranging the carbon atoms in a linear sequence and adding the appropriate number of hydrogen atoms to each carbon to satisfy the tetravalency of carbon. Each carbon atom should form four bonds.
Ensure that the bromine atom is correctly placed on the fourth carbon atom, and verify that the total number of hydrogen atoms matches the molecular formula. The final structure should reflect the molecular formula CH3(CH2)2CHBrCH3.
