Writing structural formula from the IUPAC names:
 
Following are the steps to be  followed:
 
1) write the number of carbon actoms according to the word root (carbon skeleton).
 
2) Number of carbon atoms from any end
 
3) according to given suffix ane, ene, or yne the position of the bond is specified in the parant chain.
 
4) Attach the substituent or functional group at the position of the bond is specified in the parant chain.
 
5) Satisfy the four valencies of carbon atom by attaching hydrogen atoms.
 
Lets take an example:
 
2-chloro-3-methyl pent-2-ene
 
Step 1: write down the parent chain of carbon in a skeleton form
 
          straight C space minus space straight C space minus space straight C space minus space straight C space minus space straight C
 
Step 2: Number it,
 
          straight C with 1 on top space minus space straight C with 2 on top space minus stack space straight C with 3 on top space minus stack space straight C with 4 on top space minus space straight C with 5 on top
Step 3: Locate the suffix which is a double bond at 2nd carbon
 
          straight C with 1 on top space minus space straight C with 2 on top space equals stack space straight C with 3 on top space minus stack space straight C with 4 on top space minus space straight C with 5 on top
Step 4: Attach substutuents,
 
          straight C with 1 on top space minus space stack straight C with space space left enclose blank end enclose below with 2 on top space equals stack space straight C with space left enclose blank end enclose below with 3 on top space minus stack space straight C with 4 on top space minus space straight C with 5 on top
space space space space space space space space Cl space space space space CH subscript 3
Step 5: Satisfy valencies by adding hydrogen atoms
 
          stack CH subscript 3 with blank on top space minus space stack straight C with space space left enclose blank end enclose below with blank on top space equals stack space straight C with space left enclose blank end enclose below with blank on top space minus stack space straight C with blank on top straight H subscript 2 space minus space stack CH subscript 3 with blank on top
space space space space space space space space space space space space Cl space space space space CH subscript 3
