MCQ
The systematic name of $C{H_3} - CHBr - C{H_2}OH$ is
  • A
    $3-$ hydroxy $-2-$ bromopropane
  • $2-$ bromopropanol $-1$ ol
  • C
    $2-$ bromo $-3-$ propanol
  • D
    $3-$ hydroxy isopropyl bromide

Answer

Correct option: B.
$2-$ bromopropanol $-1$ ol
b
Numbering of carbon chain should start from the carbon where the functional group is attached.

Suffix used for $-OH$ functional group is $ol$.

Halogens are always used as substituent.

$\begin{matrix}    {{H}_{3}}C-CH-C{{H}_{2}}-OH  \\    |\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,  \\    Br\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,  \\ \end{matrix}$

Thus, the $IUPAC$ name of given compound is $2$-bromopropan-$1$-ol
