Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The structural formula and IUPAC names of the monochloroderivatives of anthracene are to be written and the structural formulas of the derivatives with IUPAC name are to be given.
Concept Introduction:
>Monochloro derivatives are obtained by replacing one hydrogen atom from the structure of a compound by one chlorine atom.
>The number of monochloro derivatives possible for a given compound depends on the number of distinct hydrogen atoms present in that compound.
>If a compound is symmetrical, the number of derivatives is less than the number of hydrogen atoms present.
>The IUPAC name is written by indicating the position of the chlorine atom on the anthracene followed by the suffix chloro anthracene.
