Question

Transcribed Image Text:The image presents a multiple-choice question asking, "Which of the following represents S-3-cyclopropyl-4-pentenal?" The image shows four chemical structures, each accompanied by a circular selection button.
Chemical Structure Descriptions:
1. **First Structure**:
- Features a cyclopropyl group bonded to a carbonyl group.
- The cyclopropyl ring is situated on the left, with what appears to be a linear chain extending right to a carbonyl group (C=O).
2. **Second Structure**:
- Contains a cyclopropyl group attached to a chain that includes a carbon-carbon double bond, representative of a pentenal structure.
- The double bond is at the end of the chain, next to the carbonyl group.
3. **Third Structure**:
- Similar to the second structure with a cyclopropyl group, but the drawing may indicate a stereochemistry with darkened lines suggesting a specific 3D orientation.
- Includes an aldehyde group (denoted by a terminal CHO).
4. **Fourth Structure**:
- Similar to the third, exhibiting a cyclopropyl group, a double bond, and an aldehyde group.
- It lacks bold lines, which might imply no specified stereochemistry different from the previous structures.
Below the structures, an option says "two of the above," indicating that more than one structure might correctly depict S-3-cyclopropyl-4-pentenal.
