If LPCC’S of equal length are competing for selection as main chain in a saturated branched acyclic hydrocarbon, then the choice given in following order to number of side chains with Lowest sumrule. (a) Choose LPCC which follow lowestsum rule. Example:
(b) Choose LPCC whose side chains have the lowest-numbered locants. Example:
