What is the name of this compund

Ethyl ethanoate

Explanation:

To name the compound given above, we must:

1. Determine the functional group of the compound.

2. Determine the longest continuous carbon chain before the functional group and the longest continuous carbon chain after the functional.

3. Name the compound by naming the compound after the functional group followed by the compound before the functional group ending its name with

–oate.

Now, we shall determine the name of the compound as follow:

1. The compound is an ester with the functional group R'COOR.

Note: R' and R are alkyl groups which may be the same or different.

2. The longest continuous carbon chain before the functional group is 2 i.e ethane and the longest continuous carbon chain after the functional group is 2 i.e ethyl

3. The name of the compound after the functional group => ethyl.

The name of the compound before the functional group => ethane but the pressence of the two oxygen atoms makes it ethanoate.

Therefore, the name of the compound is Ethyl ethanoate
