Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
One constitutional isomer and all possible configurational isomers after labelling as Z or E needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Constitutional isomer is these types of isomer where in the molecules have same molecular formula with different bonding patterns.
Configurational isomers are stereoisomers that have same molecular formula and same connectivity which cannot be converted through rotation about the single bond into another form.
(b)
Interpretation:
To generalize about all terminal double bonds in the structures in terms of Z or E.
Concept Introduction:
Terminal double bond indicates the double bond that is at the end of the chain of carbon atoms. At the end there are 2 H atoms that is substituted on carbon atom in double bond.
(c)
Interpretation:
The relation between compound III and IV
Concept Introduction:
When the isomer has same molecular formula and different structural formula namely their bonding pattern is different, then it is constitutional isomer.

- Resveratrol is an antioxidant found in the skin of red grapes. Its anticancer, anti-inammatory, and various cardiovascular effects are under active investigation. (a) Draw all resonance structures for the radical that results from homolysis of the OH bond shown in red. (b) Explain why homolysis of this OH bond is preferred to homolysis of either OH bond in the other benzene ring.arrow_forwardCould you explain why the highlighted group on the right side of the double bond has a higher priority than the lower group on the right side of the double bond.
