Work Step by Step
As per IUPAC naming, an alkyl halide is named as an alkane with a halo- substituent. The given compound has 3 carbons in its longest carbon chain (prop-), a methyl substituent at position 2 and a bromo- substituent at position 2. So, the IUPAC name of the compound is 2-bromo-2-methylpropane.
The common name of the compound is tert-butyl bromide.
The halogen bearing carbon is attached to three carbon atoms, so the compound is a tertiary halide.
