Chapter 15, Problem 15.34P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

There are two compounds with the name 2-methyl-3-hexene but only one with 2-methyl-2-hexene.  This has to be explained by giving the structures.

Concept Introduction:

The geometric isomers are said to be the isomers which shows different orientation of groups around a double bond.  The geometric isomers are also known as cis-trans isomers.

When two similar or higher priority groups are attached to the carbon on same side, it is said to be cis-isomer.

When two similar or higher priority groups are attached to the carbon on opposite sides, it is said to be trans-isomer.

To exhibit the geometric isomerism, a molecule should have double bonded carbon atoms (C=C) and each double bonded carbon should be bonded to two different groups.
