Draw and label the E and Z isomers of each of the following :

1. CH3CH2CH=CHCH2CH3 2. CH3CH=CHBr 3. (CH3)2C=CHCH3

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

1. structure (Z)-hex-3-ene (higher-priority CH3CH2 groups on the same side) structure (E)-hex-3-ene

2. structure (Z)-1-bromopropene (CH3 and Br, the higher-priority groups, on the same side) structure (E)-1-bromopropene

3. (CH3)2C=CHCH3 has two identical CH3 groups on one double-bond carbon, so it does not have E/Z isomers.
