Chapter 20.SE, Problem 17VC
Interpretation Introduction

a)

Organic Chemistry, Chapter 20.SE, Problem 17VC , additional homework tip  1

Interpretation:

The IUPAC name of the compound represented by the model shown is to be given.

Concept introduction:

The names of simple carboxylic acids which are derivatives of open-chain alkanes are arrived by replacing the terminal –e of the corresponding alkane name by –oic acid. The numbering starts from carboxyl carbon. Compounds with –COOH bonded to a ring are named using the suffix-carboxylic acid. The –COOH carbon in this case is not numbered as C1, instead the carbon to which it is attached is numbered as C1. As a substituent, the –COOH group is called as carboxyl group.

To give:

The IUPAC name of the compound represented by the model shown.

Answer to Problem 17VC

The IUPAC name of the compound represented by the model shown is (S)-3-cyclopentyl-2-methylpropanoic acid.

Explanation of Solution

The compound represented by the model is

Organic Chemistry, Chapter 20.SE, Problem 17VC , additional homework tip  8

The compound is a carboxylic acid with a three carbon straight chin and has a methyl group attached to C2 and cyclopentyl group attached to C3. The compound is optically active as C2 is chiral. The groups of first highest, second highest and third highest groups when viewed away from the group of last priority are arranged in the anti-clockwise direction. Hence the compound has S stereochemistry.

Conclusion

The IUPAC name of the compound represented by the model shown is (S)-3-cyclopentyl-2-methylpropanoic acid.
