Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The compounds showing cis-trans isomerism for the given compounds has to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Cis-trans terminology is used for two non-similar groups attached
If the two identical groups are attached on each side of double bond in same side, then it is cis alkenes.
If the two identical groups are attached on each side of double bond in opposite manner, then it is trans alkenes.
(b)
Interpretation:
The isomers shown in part (a) has to be drawn and labeled.
Concept introduction:
Cis-trans terminology is used for two non-similar groups attached alkenes.
If the two identical groups are attached on each side of double bond in same side, then it is cis alkenes.
If the two identical groups are attached on each side of double bond in opposite manner, then it is trans alkenes.

- 1. Which of the following can exist in optically active forms. a. Cis -1, 3- Dichlorocyclohexane. b. Trans -1,3- Dichlorocyclohexane. c. Cis -1, 4- Dichlorocyclohexane. d. Trans -1,4- Dichlorocyclohexane. e. Cis -1, 2- Dichlorocyclohexane.arrow_forward3. Sketch the cis and trans isomers formed when the anion of the amino acid glycine, H2NCH2CO2 (gly), reacts with CoCl2.arrow_forwardReplace one atom in CH3CH2Br by another Br atom to form a model of a compound with the formula C2H4Br2. Draw projection drawings and perspective drawings of all possible isomers. Does replacing different hydrogen atoms in CH3CH2Br to produce C2H4Br2 give different isomers? (i.e. Are all the hydrogen atoms equivalent?) If there are multiple isomers, what type of isomerism do they represent?arrow_forward
- 3. How many kinds of H are there in the isomers of dimethylcyclopropane?arrow_forwardBased from the figures below, which of the following statements is correct?I. A is an skeletal isomer of D while B and C are positional isomers.II. B and C are alkynes with six Carbons but their structures are different.III. All of the above have the possibility of a cis-trans isomerism.arrow_forwardWhich of the following compounds show cis-trans isomerism? Draw the cis and trans isomers of those that do.arrow_forward
- What are conformational isomers?arrow_forwardWhich of the following compounds can exist as cis-trans isomers? b) For those compounds that can exist as cis and trans isomers, draw and label the isomers. 1. CH3CH=CHCH2CH2CH3 2. CH3CH2CCH2CH3=CHCH3 3. CH3CH=CHCH3 4. CH3CH2CH=CH2arrow_forward3. Draw all the isomers (including structural and geometric isomers) of CH;Br; which contain a carbon-carbon double bond.arrow_forward
- Explain what geometric isomers are. Use appropriate terminology and include the following in your explanation: Cis vs. trans isomers. Relative energy levels. Give an example of a pair of geometric isomers. Don’t use Maleic/Fumaric!arrow_forwardWhich of the ff. molecules can exist as cis and trans isomer?arrow_forwardDraw an acceptable Lewis structure from each condensed structure, such that all atoms have zero formal charge. a. diethyl ether, (CH3CH2)2O, the rst general anesthetic used in medical proceduresb. acrylonitrile, CH2CHCN, starting material used to manufacture synthetic Orlon bersc. dihydroxyacetone, (HOCH2)2CO, an ingredient in sunless tanning productsd. acetic anhydride, (CH3CO)2O, a reagent used to synthesize aspirinarrow_forward
