condensed structural diagram for 4-ethyl-2-hexyne
The condensed structural diagram for 4-ethyl-2-hexyne is:
CH3CH2-C≡C-CH2CH2CH2CH3
To draw the condensed structural diagram for 4-ethyl-2-hexyne, follow these steps:
1. Start by drawing a straight line to represent the carbon chain of six carbons.
CH₃-CH₂-CH₂-CH₂-CH₂-C≡C-CH₃
2. Identify the position of the ethyl group, which is located on the fourth carbon (counting from the left end).
CH₃-CH₂-CH₂-CH(ch₃)-CH₂-C≡C-CH₃
3. Label the alkyne group, which starts from the sixth carbon (counting from the left end) and consists of a triple bond.
CH₃-CH₂-CH₂-CH(ch₃)-CH₂-C≡C-CH₃
