Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The compound has a carboxylic acid group, an amide group and a phenyl group. The root structure is 3-carbon long. Naming the compound, first number the carbon atom in the root chain. The nitrogen atom in the amide group gets priority when numbering the chain, hence it is placed at the second position. Since both the substituents, i.e amide and phenyl group, are attached to the same carbon atom, the chain is numbered such that these substituents get the lowest numbers. The substituents are named in alphabetical order, hence N,N-dimethyl 3-phenylpropanamide is the correct IUPAC name for the given compound.
