Step 1: Analyze the structure of the compound in image (c). Identify the main chain or ring structure, and determine the number of carbon atoms in the backbone. This will help you determine the base name of the compound (e.g., methane, ethane, propane, etc.).
Step 2: Look for functional groups attached to the main chain or ring in image (c). Functional groups such as hydroxyl (-OH), carboxyl (-COOH), or halogens (e.g., -Cl, -Br) influence the naming of the compound. Assign priority to the functional groups based on IUPAC rules.
Step 3: Number the carbon atoms in the main chain or ring in image (c) to ensure the functional groups and substituents receive the lowest possible numbers. Use these numbers to indicate the positions of the substituents in the name.
Step 4: Repeat the process for image (d). Identify the main chain or ring structure, determine the number of carbon atoms, and locate any functional groups or substituents attached to the structure.
Step 5: Combine the information for each compound (c and d) to write their systematic IUPAC names. Ensure the names reflect the correct positions of substituents and functional groups, and follow the rules for naming organic compounds.
