Interpretation:
The amounts of stereoisomeric
Concept Introduction:
>During catalytic hydrogenation, one hydrogen atom gets attached to each of the double bonded carbon atoms.It is a stereospecific syn addition;both hydrogensadd to the same face of the double bond.
>In catalytic hydrogenation, the stereo selectivity depends on the direction from which hydrogen atoms are transferred from the catalyst to the double bond.
>In the stereochemical reactions of cycloalkenes, the product of syn addition is formed exclusively even though it is less stable stereoisomer.
>The stereoisomer in which the bulky substituents occupy maximum equatorial sites is less stable.
