Name the following compound: ch3 – ch2 – ch2 – o – ch2 – ch2 – ch2 – ch3 1: butyl propyl ether. 2: propyl butyl ether. 3: 3-butyl propyl ether. 4: 4-propyl butyl ether.

option 1: butyl propyl ether

Explanation:

1) Idenfify the functional group: R - O - R' => ether

2) Name the alkyl groups

a) CH3 – CH2 – CH2 – : 3 carbons => propyl

b) – CH2 – CH2 – CH2 – CH3: 4 carbons => butyl

3) rule: name the subtituents in alphabetcial order => first butyl, second propyl

4) Result: buty propyl ether.
