Question

Structural isomerism includes which of the following types ? (1) Geometrical isomerism (2) Functional group isomerism (3) Chain isomerism

TestHub · Accepted Answer

Structural (constitutional) isomerism covers isomers with different connectivity : chain, position, functional group, metamerism and tautomerism. Geometrical isomerism is a kind of stereoisomerism - the connectivity is the same - so it is not a structural isomerism.

Ans. (2) and (3) only
