(a)
Interpretation: The given diene is to be classified as isolated or conjugated.
Concept introduction: Diene is a hydrocarbon that contains two
Conjugated diene consists of two double bonds that are separated by a single bond, whereas isolated diene also consists of two double bond but they are separated by two more carbon atoms.
The example that shows the basic difference between conjugated diene and isolated diene is shown below.
Figure 1

Answer to Problem 16.1P
The given diene is a conjugated diene.
Explanation of Solution
