Question

Is this the correct nomenclature for the amine in the photo?

Answer 1

It certainly is!

Explanation:

The procedure for generating the IUPAC name of an amine is:

1. The parent chain is the longest continuous chain/ring that includes the `"N"` as a substituent (cyclohexane).

2. Number the parent chain so that the carbon bearing the `"N"` atom has the lowest number (In a ring, the `"N"` atom is automatically on `"C1"`.

3. Replace the -e of the alkane by -amine (cyclohexanamine).

4. Add the names of other groups in alphabetical order. Give groups on the `"N"` atom the locant `N"-"`, and place them at the beginning of the name.

The IUPAC name of your amine is

`N","N`-dimethylcyclohexanamine.
