What is the IUPAC name of given compound? СН3-CH=CH-CH2-C≡CH
Correct answer: C. 4-Hexen-1-yne
- A. 5-Hexen-5-yne
- B. 2-Hexen-6-yne
- C. 4-Hexen-1-yne
- D. Hex-2-en-5-yne
Explanation
The correct IUPAC name for the compound СН3-CH=CH-CH2-C≡CH is 4-Hexen-1-yne. This is derived from identifying the longest carbon chain, which contains 6 carbons (hex). The double bond (en) starts at carbon 4, and the triple bond (yne) is located at carbon 1. Options A, B, and D are incorrect because they misplace the positions of the double and triple bonds or fail to accurately describe the compound's structure.
