Question

The IUPAC name of

• A. 1, 2-Dicyano cyclohexane
• B. Cyclohexane-1, 2-dinitrile
• C. Cyclohexane-1, 2-dicarbonitrile
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is C

Cyclohexane-1, 2-dicarbonitrile

Here, we know that the priority is
Functional Group > alkynes > alkenes > alkane

Therefore, here
The ring is cyclohexane

If we have to give numbering

Therefore, suffix $\Rightarrow$ carbonitrile
Here $\Rightarrow$ 1, 2-dicarbonitrile

Therefore,
Cyclohexane-1, 2-dicarbonitrile
