Question

What are their 3D structures for all their possible constitutional isomers and/or stereoisomers. Give their IUPAC names using cis-trans or R/S as needed.

C5H10,
C5H9CI
and
(b)(Only five membered rings)
CSH8CI2 (7)

Expert Solution

Step 1

Constitutional isomer: If the isomers have the same molecular formula and different bond connectivity, the isomerism is known as constitutional isomer.

Stereoisomers: If the isomers have the same molecular formula and the same bond connectivity but the special arrangement of the groups is different the isomers known as the stereoisomers. Stereoisomers are of two types:

Enantiomers: If the stereoisomers have a non-superimposable mirror image of each other, the isomerism known as the enantiomerism.
Diastereoisomers: The stereoisomers which do not mirror image of each other known as diastereomers.
