Write IUPAC name of the following: CH 3 - C ≡ C - CH 2 Br

The given organic compound contains four carbon atoms in the parent chain, hence the root word is "but". The second and third carbon atoms are joined by triple bonds, hence the primary suffix is "yne". There is a bromine atom at the first carbon atom of the chain, this is named as "bromo", and is added as a prefix to the corresponding hydrocarbon. The carbon chain is numbered from right to left to give the least numbers to the functional group, and the substituent. Therefore, the IUPAC name becomes, 1 -bromobut- 2 -yne. C 4 H 3 - C 3 ≡ C 2 - C 1 H 2 Br
