|---|---|
(P) | (1) Functional group Isomerism |
(Q)
| (2) Structural Isomerism |
(R)
| (3) Conformational Isomerism |
(S)
| (4) Geometrical Isomerism |
| (5) Metamer |
The CORRECT option is :
Options:
Answer:
Solution:
(P) 4: Both compounds are 1,2-disubstituted cyclohexanes with different relative stereochemistry (cis vs trans), making them Geometrical Isomers.
(Q) 3: The two structures represent the same molecule in different ring-flipped chair forms (axial-axial vs equatorial-equatorial), making them Conformational Isomers.
(R) 1,2: One molecule contains an alcohol group () and the other contains an ether group (), making them Functional group Isomers (which is a type of Structural Isomerism).
(S) 2: The substituents are at positions 1,3 in the first molecule and positions 1,4 in the second molecule, making them positional (Structural) isomers.
