nomenclature help please
What is this:
3-oxo-3-phenylpropyltrimethylammonium halide?
I'm not getting a reasonable structure from this name.
Thanks,
CRX

F**k! Thanks Steve and thanks for not pointing out how obvious it should have been to me. I was counting C's in the wrong direction. One quick
question; isn't the carbonyl C counted as part of the chain? That would make it a butyltrimethylammonium halide?
Thanks again!
CRX ;^)
this would be made from 3-dimethylaminopropiophenone and methyl iodide?
