a.
Answer to Problem 37A
Explanation of Solution
In the given compound, the longest chain contains three carbons and the hydroxyl group is located on the second carbon. Therefore, it is named Propan-2-ol.
b.
Interpretation: To give the IUPAC names of the given alcohols.
Concept Introduction: The IUPAC nomenclature of alcohols will begin with the selection of the longest carbon chain with an attached hydroxyl group. Number the longest carbon chain in such a way that the hydroxyl group will get the least number. Name the substituent first and then add the longest carbon chain along with the suffix “ol”.
b.
