What are the rules for naming benzene rings connected to long hydrocarbons?
In general you number off the carbon atoms in the benzene ring so that the hydrocarbon chain/s is numbered as low as possible, and then list the branches from lowest numbered to highest numbered. e,g. a benzene ring with a hexane chain and a propane chain attached to the ring on adjacent carbon atoms in the benzene ring would be 1-Hexyl, 2-Propylbenzene.
