 Important Rules for Numbering Carbon atom

1) Select the Longest Possible Carbon Chain but

2) With Lowest locant Rule (No. Longest Chain so that

Substituents have the Lowest possible no.)

3) Overall priority order is

Sec. Suffix FG > Double Bond> triple bond > Pry. prifix FG
Spiro and Bicyclo compounds
