Question

what is the iupac name of the compound below? 2,6 - dihydroxytoluene 1 - methyl - 2,6 - cyclohexanediol 2 - methyl - 1,3 - cyclohexanediol 2 - methyl - 3 - hydroxyphenol question 13 (10 points) what is the structure of 1 - chloro - 3 - ethyl - 2 - heptanol?

Explanation:

For the first question, the compound is a cyclohexane - based compound with two hydroxyl groups and a methyl group. The numbering should start from the carbon with a hydroxyl group to give the lowest - numbered locants. So, it is 2 - methyl - 1,3 - cyclohexanediol. For the second question, 1 - chloro - 3 - ethyl - 2 - heptanol has a 7 - carbon chain (heptane), with a hydroxyl group at the 2 - position, an ethyl group at the 3 - position and a chlorine atom at the 1 - position.

Answer:

First question: C. 2 - methyl - 1,3 - cyclohexanediol
Second question: The first structure shown for the second - part (with Cl at the 1 - position, ethyl at the 3 - position and OH at the 2 - position on a 7 - carbon chain).
