Hi,

I am not too sure of the name of an alcohol that I am trying to work out.

CH2=CH CH2 CH (CH3) CH2 CH2 OH

The name I came up with was

3-methylhex-5-en-1-ol

But I can not seem to get confirmation by looking it up on google, thus making me think I am wrong.
Any help will be greatly appreciated
