Solution

The correct option is A 1 - chloro-but - 2 - ene
The given compound has four carbon atoms, therefore it is assigned the term 'but". There is a chlorine group attached to the first carbon, hence the name '1 chloro'. A double bond exists between the second and third carbon. Hence the name '2 ene'. The IUPAC name is thus given as 1-chloro-but-2-ene.
