Answer
It is an Alkene. It is 4-Ethyl-4,5-dimethyl-2-heptene.
Work Step by Step
These structures for alkenes are named according to the nomenclature system rules set by the IUPAC.
1. The longest hydrocarbon chain has 7 carbon atoms, thus its a heptene.
2. the double bond is given the lowest number. hence, it is on the second carbon from the left.
3. An Ethyl group is found on carbon number 4.
4. Also, two methyl groups are found. One on carbon number 4 and the other on carbon number 5. It is thus a dimethyl.
5. Naming is done alphabetically, hence Ethyl comes before methyl.
