JamiaJamia 2010

Solution:

$ \underset{isoprene}{\mathop{\overset{1}{\mathop{C}}\,{{H}_{2}}=\underset{\begin{smallmatrix} | \\ C{{H}_{3}} \end{smallmatrix}}{\overset{2}{\mathop{C}}}\,\overset{3}{\mathop{C}}\,H=\overset{4}{\mathop{C}}\,{{H}_{2}}}}\, $ Hence, the chemical name is 2-methyl-1, 3-butadiene and it is a monomer unit of natural rubber.
