Chapter 4, Problem 4.34P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The five isomeric structures of alkene C6H12 that give hexane as a product on catalytic hydrogenation are to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Alkenes are the unsaturated class of organic compounds which have a double bond in their structure. The general formula of alkene which is written as CnH2n. It is more reactive than alkanes which have only a single bond in their structure. Constitutional isomers are compounds that have the same molecular formula but different bond connectivity.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The number of alkenes that on catalytic hydrogenation gives cyclopentane and its structures is to be stated.
