Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Structural formulas for other two stereoisomers of 2,4-heptadiene has to be drawn.

Concept Introduction:

IUPAC nomenclature:

Alkene: Unsaturated hydrocarbons having at least one double bond between two carbon atoms are known as alkenes.

The systematic name of alkenes are written by replacing “ane” of alkane with the suffix name “ene”. Numbering of the main chain should be in such away that alkene group must get lowest possible numbers.

Trans configuration: In trans configuration, high priority groups are placed on opposite sides of the double bond.

Cis configuration: In cis configuration, high priority groups are placed on same sides of the double bond.

E configuration: The geometric isomers are given E configuration if high priority groups are placed on opposite sides of the bond.

Z configuration: The geometric isomers are given Z configuration if high priority groups are placed on same sides of the bond.
