Video transcript

Hi everyone here we have a question asking us to name the fallen compound and identify its organic functional group. So this nitrogen here Is bonded to two carbons and a hydrogen making this in a mean. So our base name is going to be a mean. So now we need to name our substitue ints. So to the left of it we have two carbons, which is an ethyl group to the right of it. We have four carbons. And the way that they are situated makes this an isopropyl group and we want to put these in alphabetical order. So ethel is going to come first. So we're going to have ethel isopropyl amine. So it's organic functional group isn't a mean and its name is ethyl isopropyl amine. Thank you for watching. Bye!
