Write the structural formula and name it systematically CH (CH3) 2-CH (CH3) 2

In this task, you will need to define a name for the next compound. Let’s write it down.

CH (CH₃) ₂ – CH (CH₃) ₂.

In this, the compound in the chain is a single bond, which means that the compound belongs to the class of alkanes.

There are 4 carbon atoms in the chain. So the compound is called butane. A methyl group is located near the 2 and 3 carbon atoms. Let’s write down the name of the compound: 2,3 – dimethylbutane.
