Hmm something like


2 Di methyl 5 blah blah alkane.. Something like this.
Re: Who Can Name This Compound? by kunleweb: 6:34pm On May 19, 2019
3 Propano - 5 Propene.... I dey think o. Going back 22 years na die.

this is the name I came up with.
Re: Who Can Name This Compound? by kunleweb: 6:36pm On May 19, 2019
Okay something like


Iso ( SH) 3 Propano, 5 Propene Pentane



Terrible name.


This is the best I can crack. What did you come up with.

I attached the image, have you seen it?
Re: Who Can Name This Compound? by kunleweb: 6:38pm On May 19, 2019
Sorry mate my brain just reset

Ok
3 ethyl is right. I'm checking the others


Now go to the 5th chain you named 5. Look at the number of carbon and hydrogen atoms there count it and see if it should be hept... Or something else.
Re: Who Can Name This Compound? by kunleweb: 6:45pm On May 19, 2019
Let's take it a step at a time.


SH needs to be named first.


That's SH 3 ethyl, cause you need to mention the compound and the carbon chain its connected to. So



SH ( thiol) 3 ETHLYL

I'm actually caught up between hept or hexa.

If we separate the top C2H5 into CH2CH3, the longest chain becomes hept but if left as ethyl it becomes hexa.

That's where I'm really confused.

Let's break it into four parts


1.SH


2. THIRD CARBON ATOM - C2 H5 - ethyl


3. FIFTH CARBON ATOM - C3 H6 - propene/propan


4. LONGEST CHAIN - C5 H12 - pentane


LET'S IDENTIY THEM IN PARTS THEN WE CAN NAME IT TOGETHER AFTER WE NAME IT IN BITS AND PIECES

ok

I just numbered the carbon with pencil.

The first image is the one with the inseparated ethyl group.

The second one is separated.

Ps don't mind the grammar please
Re: Who Can Name This Compound? by kunleweb: 6:58pm On May 19, 2019
Discard that last diagram abeg the one labelled one to seven. You count your carbon atoms horizontally or vertically. A

How will the continent move forward. So younger lads can't jump on a thread on chemistry to. Damn. This nation is in trouble.
Re: Who Can Name This Compound? by kunleweb: 7:04pm On May 19, 2019
3 ethyl, 5 propyl, Pentane I can't input the SH part. Finish it. This is the form it should come when accurately named from the first diagram



3 ethyl 5 propyl Pentane 2,4 Di thol. But those such compound exist is the thing. I don't understand the 2,4 part. I used yours into this.

But K ow the shortest ethyl then the next propyl and the longest Pentane are accurate. Gotta figure out inputting the SH part

The truth is that almost non of us understood what they taught us in school...

As for me I mostly crammed my way out of it..

Not until I have graduated that I started correlating day to day activities with school problems I began to understand what I never seemed to understand in class all these years..

Most first-class holders are not in anyway better than those that didn't step a foot into university..

Re: Who Can Name This Compound? by Jman06(m): 7:35pm On May 19, 2019
6-thiol-5-ethyl-3-methylheptane


Remove 1hydrogen atom from the carbon bearing the methyl group I.e carbon 3 and also remove 2H from carbon 5
Re: Who Can Name This Compound? by kunleweb: 7:38pm On May 19, 2019
I love chemistry. In the end the name should sound nice. Come premium writer a premium genius just decoded it.
Re: Who Can Name This Compound? by Kimmyslaw(m): 7:46pm On May 19, 2019
3,5 Di ethyl, 3 methyl pentane
Re: Who Can Name This Compound? by Yewandequeen(f): 7:48pm On May 19, 2019
Where is the Op?

How can your carbon-3 carry 3hydrogens when you already have other attached bonds? And carbon 2&5 also has extra bond. Carbon can only carry 4 bonds. This compound is wrong.

With the right no of bonds
