E
In the equilibrium reaction of the conformations of 1,3-butadiene, what adequately explains the 15
kJ/mol energy barrier between the s-cis and s-trans conformation?
15 kJ/mol
Sterics cause the s-cis conformation to be more stable
and, therefore, higher in energy.
(B) The л-bonds are not conjugated during the conversion
of one conformation to the other.
The s-trans is more stable because it is aromatic.
The s-cis is less stable because it is non-aromatic.
(E) Both the s-cis and s-trans are conjugated because all
carbons are sp³-hybridized.
