Question

Give the relationship between the following pairs of structures. The possible relationships are:

same compound

constitutional isomers (structural isomers)

cis-trans isomers

not isomers (different molecular formula)

(a) and

(b) and

(c) and

(d) and

(e) and

(f) and

(g) \(\mathrm{CH}_{3}-\mathrm{CH}_{2}-\mathrm{CH}_{2}-\mathrm{CH}_{3}\) and \(\mathrm{CH}_{3}-\mathrm{CH}=\mathrm{CH}-\mathrm{CH}_{3}\)

(h) \(\mathrm{CH}_{2}=\mathrm{CH}-\mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{3}\) and \(\mathrm{CH}_{3}-\mathrm{CH}=\mathrm{CH}-\mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{3}\)

(i) \(\mathrm{CH}_{2}=\mathrm{CHCH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{3}\) and \(\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}=\mathrm{CH}_{2}\)

Solution

Step 1 of 12

Constitutional isomers (structural isomerism represents the compounds with the same molecular formula but have a different arrangement of atoms or groups. Cis-trans isomerism represents the direction of two comparative atoms around a double bond. Compounds with different molecular formulas represent the different compounds.
