Draw the structure of the one tertiary (3°) alcohol with the molecular formula c6h14o that contains two separate ch3 groups attached to the main carbon chain.

The name of the alcohol of the molecular formula C₆H₁₄O is

2,3 dimethyl 2 butanol

Alcohol is a carbon compound derived from alkanes with a general formula

Alcohol has a -OH functional group

Based on the location of the bound -OH functional group, alcohol can be divided into three types namely:

For tertiary alcohol is denoted by notation 3°

In the statement about the problem there is alcohol with a molecular formula:

Because there are 2 methyl (CH₃) branches attached to the main chain, the main chain only has 4 C atoms, so the main chain in alcohol is called butanol

C-C-C-C

The methyl branch will be located on C atoms No. 2 and 3 of the main chain because when placed at the end it will form a new main chain that has more than 4 C atoms.

C-C-C-C

    |   |

CH₃ C H₃

The -OH function group we put on a tertiary C atom that is C atom no 2 or 3 (from the same left or right because both C atoms are tertiary)

 OH

    |

C-C-C-C

    |   |

CH₃ C H₃

So the name of the alcohol is (the -OH functional group gets a smaller number)

2,3 dimethyl 2 butanol

6-decene is not possible
