Question
Chapter 3.14, Problem 17P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Structural formulas for each of the given bicyclic hydrocarbons are to be written.
Concept introduction:
In bridged bicyclic hydrocarbons, the two carbon atoms that are common to the two or more rings are called bridgehead carbons.
The bracketed numbers in the name of the compound indicate the number of carbon atoms between the bridgehead carbons, from the largest to the smallest ring.
Numbering starts at a bridgehead carbon and proceeds around the largest bridge and continues through the next largest bridge. Atoms in the smallest bridge are numbered last.
If any substituents are present, they are named as usual, with the smallest possible total.
