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 (
