Chapter 3, Problem 3.47P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Does cyclooctene have two distinct configurations about its C=C bond is to be explained.

Concept introduction:

Double bonds in cycloalkenes of seven or fewer carbons are exclusively cis as the trans isomers are too strained at ordinary condition. Cycloalkene ring with more than seven carbons is large enough to have both configurations.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
5a) Construct a model of butene, C4H8, using two carbon atoms with planar geometry and two carbon atoms with tetrahedral geometry. How many other isomers of C₂H, can you construct? Draw a dash structural representation of each structure. 5b) How many bonds in butene enjoy free rotation?
Is there much flexibility in the structure of benzene or can you assign a definite shape to the entire molecule? Compare the shape to that of cyclohexane.
1. Although there is only one alkene with the formula C2H4 (ethene) and only one with the formula C3H6 (propene), there are several alkenes with the formula C4H8. Draw all of the possible bond line structures for alkenes with the formula C4H3 including all possible structural and stereoisomers.
