Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The compound has two chlorine atoms and an amino group attached to a benzene ring. To name it according to IUPAC rules, we need to locate the positions of the substituent groups on the ring. The amino group takes precedence over the chlorine atoms, so we number the ring so that the amino group gets the lowest possible number. This gives us a 2,5-dichlorobenzene with an amino group at position 4, which we name as 2,5-dichloro-4-aminobenzene. However, as per the given options, only option B matches the name.
