Total number of isomers of molecular formula of C6H12 having cyclopropane ring are (count structural and stereoisomers; count an enantiomeric pair as 2).
Options:
Answer:
D
Solution:
Propylcyclopropane (1); isopropylcyclopropane (1); 1-ethyl-1-methylcyclopropane (1); 1-ethyl-2-methylcyclopropane (two different stereocentres: cis and trans, each a pair of enantiomers = 4); 1,1,2-trimethylcyclopropane (C2 is a stereocentre: a pair of enantiomers = 2); 1,2,3-trimethylcyclopropane (all-cis, meso, and cis,trans, achiral = 2). Total = 1 + 1 + 1 + 4 + 2 + 2 = 11.
Ans. (D) 11.
