MCQ
$IUPAC $ name of $H - \mathop {\mathop {\mathop {\mathop C\limits^| }\limits^H }\limits_| }\limits_H - \mathop {\mathop {\mathop {\mathop C\limits^| }\limits^{Cl} }\limits_| }\limits_H - Cl$ is
  • A
    $1, 2-$ dichloroethane
  • B
    $2, 2-$ dichloroethane
  • $1, 1-$ dichloroethane
  • D
    Dichloroethane

Answer

Correct option: C.
$1, 1-$ dichloroethane
c
The numbering of carbon chain is done from the carbon which is having two chlorine atoms.

The parent alkane containing two carbon atoms is called as ethane and hence the IUPAC name of this compound is $1,1$-Dichloroethane.
