How many stereoisomers of given compound are possible when alkenyl substituent have a cis configuration

structure

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

Ans. (A) 4.

Sol. With the propenyl substituent fixed cis (Z), the only stereogenic elements left are the two adjacent ring carbons bearing the alkenyl and vinyl groups. They are non-equivalent, so the number of stereoisomers = 22 = 4.
