QUESTION:
1. Determine which of the following compounds show cis-trans isomerism. 2. Draw and name the cis and trans (or Z and E) isomers of those that do. (a) hex-3-ene (b) buta-1,3-diene (c) hexa-2,4-diene (d) 3-methylpent-2-ene (e) 2,3-dimethylpent-2-ene (f) 3,4-dibromocyclopentene
ANSWER:Step 1 out of 6
Cis-trans isomerism deals with the arrangement of atoms across the plane of double bonds. The geometrical isomers have different properties. E and Z are also used to denote isomers.
