What is your own attempt. What is the name of the longest chain.

But IUPAC does not use benzyl in the name of this compound.

The Methyl derivate can be found here:

https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/061733704

But why is 2- Chloro- 3- (Phenyl-methyl)- pentane ( longer chain )wrong. Does Benzene have a higher priority that it's called as butyl benzene.
