(a)
Interpretation:
The name of following molecule with appropriate stereochemical designation should be determined:
Concept introduction:
The E-configuration stands for anti-configuration, whereas, Z-configuration stands for same side configuration.
The determination of configuration is done on the basis of the
(b)
Interpretation:
The name of following molecule with appropriate stereochemical designation should be determined:
Concept introduction:
Alkenes are unsaturated hydrocarbons with double covalent bond between carbon-carbon atoms. On the basis of groups bonded with the double bonded carbon atoms, alkenes can be classified as E and Z-configuration.
The E-configuration stands for anti-configuration, whereas, Z-configuration stands for same side configuration.
The determination of configuration is done on the basis of the atomic/molecular mass of the atoms/groups attached to double bonded carbon atoms. If both higher atomic/molecular mass atom/groups are placed at the same side, then it is said to be Z-configuration and in E-configuration, these groups will be at anti-position.
