A) 3- methylpentane-3-ol
B) 3-hydroxyhexane
C) 3-hydroxy-3-methyl pentane
D) all of the above
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
\[\underset{3-methyl\text{ }pentan\text{ }3-ol}{\mathop{\overset{5}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}}}\,-\overset{4}{\mathop{C{{H}_{2}}}}\,-\overset{\begin{smallmatrix} OH \\ 3| \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{\underset{\begin{smallmatrix} | \\ C{{H}_{3}} \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C}}\,}}\,-\overset{2}{\mathop{C{{H}_{2}}}}\,\overset{1}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}}}\,}}\,\] Hydroxy is used when \[-OH\] group is written in prefix. So, choice [b] and [c] are wrong.
