The IUPAC name of the compound represented by the structure below is ?

Firstly, we identify the parent name. Here, how many Carbon atoms do we have? Four carbon atoms, i.e But...

However, because there are two C=C double bonds on C-1 and C-3, the parent name will be but,1,3- diene.

Secondly, we identify the substituent group present, which is Chlorine present on C-2 i.e 2- Chloro

Finally, join the two names to get the IUPAC Nomenclature of the compound. i.e 2-chloro but-1,3 diene.

Hence, the correct answer is option A.
