Answered by DrBob222
I am not an organic chemist but I would name this as
2-methyl-4-ethyl-5-hydroxy heptane but you should get a second opinion.

Here is my shot at it.

4-ethyl-6-methyl-3-heptanol or 4-ethyl-6-methyl-heptan-3-ol


Hydroxyl groups takes precedence.

There are many tutorials on the web that can help

Naming it as an -ol makes sense to me.

Sense, not since. I apologize, autospell.
