Longest chain Rule - IUPAC system of nomenclature

The primary step in naming an organic compound is to choose the longest continuous chain of carbon atoms that may or may not be horizontal (straight). This continuous chain is known as parent chain or main chain and other carbon chains attached to it are termed as side chains (substituents). Instances:

If two different chains of similar length are possible, the chain along with maximum number of side chains or alkyl groups is selected.
