Chapter 10.1, Problem 1P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The structure of six alkenes having molecular formula ${\text{C}}_5{\text{H}}_{\text{10}}$ and a pair of diastereomers are to be shown.

Concept introduction: Alkenes are the compounds in which $\text{C}=\text{C}$ double bond is present. Alkenes can be of two types: terminal alkenes and non-terminal alkenes. When double bond is present at the end of carbon chain, then it is classified as terminal alkene, whereas when double bond is present within carbon chain, then it is classified as non-terminal alkene.
