Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The type of stereoisomer of the product formed and the mode of addition of chlorine to the double bond, when cyclohexene reacts with chlorine, is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

The compounds having the same molecular formula but different spatial arrangements are known as stereoisomers.

Syn addition is the reaction in which two substituents groups are added to the same side of the double bond.

Anti-addition is the reaction in which two substituents groups are added to the opposite side of the double bond.

TRUE OR FALSE (a) Both ethylene and acetylene are planar molecules. (b) An alkene in which each carbon of the double bond has two different groups bonded to it will show cis-trans isomerism. (c) Cis-trans isomers have the same molecular formula but a different connectivity of their atoms. (d) Cis-2-butene and trans -2-butene can be interconverted by rotation about the carbon–carbon double bond. (e) Cis-trans isomerism is possible only among appropriately substituted alkenes. (f) Both 2-hexene and 3-hexene can exist as pairs of cis-trans isomers. (g) Cyclohexene can exist as a pair of cis-trans isomers. (h) 1-Chloropropene can exist as a pair of cis-trans isomers.
Reaction of butane (CH 3CH 2CH 2CH 3) with Cl 2 in the presence of light forms two different alkyl chlorides that have molecular formula C 4H 9Cl. Draw the structures of both alkyl chlorides.
