    H3C - - C - - CH2 - - CH2 - - CH2 - - CH2 - - CH2--CH3

    CH2 - - CH3

    Observe the longest chain. Then start counting from the branching side.

    1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

    H3C - - C - - CH2 - - CH2 - - CH2 - - CH2 - - CH2--CH3

    |

    CH2 - - CH3

    So there are 8 carbons in the long chain means Octane.

    Now, there is a ethyl group at 2nd carbon.

    So, it is 2-ethylocatane

    2-ethylocatane
