Correct answer: A
- We identify each structure in List-I and match it with the correct IUPAC name in List-II.
Step 1: Identify structure (B)
Given:
This means one central carbon is attached to:
- two methyl groups,
- two propyl groups.
So the skeleton is:
The longest chain has carbons heptane. At carbon , there are two methyl substituents.
Hence the name is:
So,
Step 2: Use options to narrow remaining matches
Only options A and B have:
So the answer must be either A or B.
Difference between A and B is in matching of (C) and (D):
- Option A: and
- Option B: and
So we now identify (C) and (D).
Step 3: Identify the alkene/diene structures
From the given list, the two remaining names are:
- (I) -Methylpent--ene
- (IV) -Methyl--pentadiene
Name (I): -Methylpent--ene
Main chain: pent--ene
This has one double bond.
Name (IV): -Methyl--pentadiene
Main chain: penta--diene
This has two double bonds.
Thus:
- the structure with two double bonds must match (IV),
- the structure with one double bond must match (I).
From the given figure, structure (C) is the diene and structure (D) is the mono-alkene. Therefore,
Step 4: Identify structure (A)
Now only name (II) remains for (A).
Name (II) is:
So,
Step 5: Final matching
Thus the correct matching is:
This corresponds to Option A.
Step 6: Compare with stored correct answer
Stored correct answer: A
Our derived answer: A
So they agree.
