(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The more stable compound from given compounds cis-1,2-dimethylcyclopropane, trans-1,2-dimethylcyclopropane has to be identified.

Concept introduction:

  • Cyclopropane compounds are the smallest cyclic compounds.
  • The atoms are very closely located in cyclopropane compounds.
  • Every atoms/groups attached to the carbon atoms of cyclopropane are eclipsing in below the plane and above the plane.
  • The increasing cost energy order of eclipsed atoms/groups is,

H/H (4 kJ/mol) < H/CH3(6 kJ/mol) < CH3/CH3(11 kJ/mol)

(b)
