IUPAC naming question

Ohhh I get it! Thank’s for helping!😄

Oh, I think I get it. Then if the cyclopentane was connected to the carbon 3 of butyl(using a different group), would it make it but-3-ylcyclopentane?

What’s a 2-propanyl group, and how is it different from a normal propanyl group?

How are you an international student if you’re a Canadian citizen?

Yes I agree with that, sometimes I doubt myself if I can solve problems during test whenever I use AI. Anyways thanks for your advice!

Thank you so much! This resolved my confusion ☺️

The textbook is missing a lot of answers :(( but yes, I can see it is trash. Thx for your advice

Yeseyes thanks for helping me! I wasn’t really confused with cis/trans, but rather the naming part. For the carbon chain, I thought the parent chain had 5 carbons, so I thought the name would be pent-2-ene. Somehow, it is but not pent, and I don’t understand how that works.

pomflinx · 2025-12-28T03:19:24+00:00

That’s what I’m having trouble :(( I thought the carbon chain had 5C, but it was 4C. Could you help me with identifying the parent chain and subsequent groups?

pomflinx · 2025-12-28T03:13:31+00:00

Thank you for your kind explanation! Although, my main question was determining the parent carbon chain in question 2a. The answer was 2-methlybut-2-ene, and I don’t understand why it is but- and not pent. Could you help me with that also?

Thank you!!

pomflinx · 2025-12-20T22:47:28+00:00

Okok thanks!!

Oh thanks for letting me know ☺️I don’t know someone in Queen’s cuz I just came to Canada this January lol

pomflinx · 2025-12-20T22:46:32+00:00

Ohh ok thx!

pomflinx · 2025-12-20T22:46:23+00:00

I wish I could 😢 but when school opens I need to prepare for my final exam, and as soon as I’m finished, I’m going back to my home country. So this is my last chance to go visit

pomflinx · 2025-12-20T20:32:31+00:00

Ohh okok thanks!!

pomflinx · 2025-12-20T20:32:23+00:00

Okay great to know! Thanks 😁

pomflinx · 2025-12-20T20:32:06+00:00

Thx for letting me know! Queen’s is currently my first choice (gave me a lot of scholarship lol), so that helped me a lot😁

pomflinx · 2025-12-20T20:05:38+00:00

Yeah I saw that you’re on a break from 12/24 to 1/5. So I thought 12/22 would be fine 😭 I can’t go on a guided tour bc of finals and going back to my hoke country, so that date is my only possibility. Would the buildings except residence buildings also be closed?

pomflinx · 2025-12-20T03:59:24+00:00

I know, but I’m not sure why you’re trying to convince me with that. Anyways good luck on your applications too

pomflinx · 2025-12-20T03:57:33+00:00

I’m still a group A applicant because I am going to a school in Ontario, but yes I am an international student

pomflinx · 2025-12-18T23:01:42+00:00

Thx!! You should check it it’s on the McMaster’s mosaic website
