Solution
The correct options are A 2-bromo-5,5-dimethylcyclopent-3-en-1-one
B 3-methoxy-2-nitrocyclohex-1-ene
C 2-bromo-6-nitrobenzamide
(a) Here principal functional group is ketone. Number the carbon so that alkene gets lowest locant. Then according to alphabetical order of substituents, number the carbon. Since "B" of Bromo alphabetically precedes the "M" of methyl. So the correct name is 5-bromo-2,2-dimethylcyclopent-3-en-1-one.
(b) Here alkene is primary functional group. Numbering should be done such that substitutent at doulb bond gets lowest locant.
