A Turkish restaurant called Bosphorus! Chosen in part because its name makes me think of a hybrid element of boron & phosphorus

IUPAC naming question: Why are the dimethyl groups listed before the branched substituent (in blue)?

Both start with β€œm” and I’m not sure how to alphabetize. According to the rules, any prefix (di, tri, etc.) should be dropped, so we’re comparing β€œmethyl” vs β€œmethylpropyl”
