The correct structure of
5-(2-Chlorobutoxy)pentanoyl chloride is :
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is A
The IUPAC name is
5-(2-Chlorobutoxy)pentanoyl chloride
( -COX ):
prefix: Halo Carbonyl
Suffix: oyl halide/carbonyl halide
Ethers ( -O-R )
Prefix : alkoxy
-X (F, Cl, Br, I) do not have any priority order and considered as alkyl substituents while numbering
Acid chloride group has higher priority than ether group. Also there is a chloro locant in ether group, the ether group is also numbered besides the parent chain.
Numbering of ether branch is done starting from carbon directly bonded to oxygen.
