Chapter 6, Problem 16E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The reason for no Z or E form for 1-butene unlike 2-butene needs to be explained.

Concept introduction:

Based on IUPAC rules, the geometric isomers of alkene are named as cis or trans depending on the arrangement of groups. Here, the longest chains of carbon atoms are considered. But in case the chain is not long and is between two carbon molecule, and E-Z system comes to play which is based on CIP sequence rules. Here, the rules are based on priority. This comes to apply when the cis-trans system cannot be applied.
