2,5,5-trimethyl-3-heptyne or 2,5,5-trimethylhept-3-yne
The ethyl group is what makes it tricky - because that actually becomes part of the backbone chain.
Look at it this way:
C-C-C(CH3)2-C≡C-C(CH3)-C

srry got it wrong first time.my bad. hope this is better. :)
2,2 dimethyl,6methylhept-4-yne
= represents triple bond

i put the dashes to align as they were going askew in preview.
