Solution

1. At first find the number of carbon in the longest chain. Here we have only 5 carbon in one chain.
2. Counting of carbon will be started from functional grouped carbon as the lowest possible number.
3. Since one C=C is present in the chain so -ene will be added with the name.

So the answer is pent-3-en-2-ol.
