(a) When carbon containing principal functional group is directly on a ring, normal suffix (-oate) cannot be used. In present case, carboxylate suffix should have been used and correct IUPAC name would be "methyl cyclohexane carboxylate".(d) When there are two carbon containing principal functional groups (now- COOH ), their carbon atoms become terminals of the parent chain irrespective of chain length. The correct name of this compound would be 2-butyl-4-ethylpentane-dioic acid.(b) and (c) have correct IUPAC names mentioned as:

(b)

4-Bromo-3-chloro hexanamide

(c)
