2,2-dichloro-1,1,1-trifluoropropane (The placement of hyphens and commas
important. Commas are used to separate numbers from numbers. Hyphens
are used to separate numbers from letters. Also notice that “dichloro” comes
before “trifluoro” because prefixes are ignored when alphabetizing
substituents.)
