Question
Prepare the figure of Relative energies of an isolated and conjugated diene ?
Expert Solution
Step 1
Dienes are covalent compounds containing two double bonds. Dienes are classified into three types, conjugated dienes, isolated dienes and cumulated dienes.
Dienes with alternate double bond called as conjugated dienes that is seperated by one single bond whereas dienes with seperate double bonds that is two double bonds separated by more than one single bond.
Conjugated dienes are more stable than isolated dienes that is conjugated dienes have lower energy than that of isolated dienes.
