| 21 | If you think about this it 's based on the four carbon structure so you 've got ta have a few in the name there is a carbon carbon double bond so the basic structure we 've got is the Butane but as there is more than one position you could have that carbon carbon double bond now , to indicate this position and so this one would be called futes it would normally be a butane but to indicate it 's position bute one E and again you 're taking the lowest number so instead of it being a bute three , it 's a bute one E you start at the appropriate . |
