I am struggling naming cyclic compounds with multiple substituents and no principle functional group . If anyone can please elaborate the rules, it would be appreciated.

$\begingroup$ I would call this 2-chloro-4-nitrotoluene. $\endgroup$– Aravind Suresh ThakidayilJan 12, 2021 at 10:58

1$\begingroup$ @AravindSuresh And you would be correct if the question were about any name. PIN though is 2‐chloro‐1‐methyl‐4‐nitrobenzene. $\endgroup$– andselisk ♦Jan 12, 2021 at 11:05
