See the condensed structural formulas below.

There are four isomeric haloalkanes with molecular formula $C_{4} H_{9} Br$ $"C"_4"H"_9"Br"$ .

The primary bromides are 1-bromobutane, ${CH}_{3} {CH}_{2} {CH}_{2} {CH}_{2} Br$ $"CH"_3"CH"_2"CH"_2"CH"_2"Br"$ , and 1-bromo-2-methylpropane, ${({CH}_{3})}_{2} {CHCH}_{2} Br$ $("CH"_3)_2"CHCH"_2"Br"$ .
The secondary bromide is 2-bromobutane, ${CH}_{3} {CH}_{2} {CHBrCH}_{3}$ $"CH"_3"CH"_2"CHBrCH"_3$ .
The tertiary bromide is 2-bromo-2-methylpropane, ${({CH}_{3})}_{3} CBr$ $("CH"_3)_3"CBr"$ .

The two isomeric carboxylic acids with molecular formula $C_{4} H_{8} O_{2}$ $"C"_4"H"_8"O"_2$ are

The four isomeric esters with molecular formula $C_{4} H_{8} O_{2}$ $"C"_4"H"_8"O"_2$ are

The three secondary alcohols with molecular formula $C_{5} H_{12} O$ $"C"_5"H"_12"O"$ are

pentan-2-ol, ${CH}_{3} {CH}_{2} {CH}_{2} {CHOHCH}_{3}$ $"CH"_3"CH"_2"CH"_2"CHOHCH"_3$
pentan-3-ol, ${CH}_{3} {CH}_{2} {CHOHCH}_{2} {CH}_{3}$ $"CH"_3"CH"_2"CHOHCH"_2"CH"_3$
3-methylbutan-2-ol, ${({CH}_{3})}_{2} {CHCHOHCH}_{3}$ $("CH"_3)_2"CHCHOHCH"_3$
