constitutional/ structural isomers Flashcards
chain isomers
having diff base name
C4H10— n-butane/ 2-methyl propane
isomers of C5H10
n-pentane, 2-methyl butane, 2,2-dimethyl propane
BP- A>B>C
MP- A<B<C
ring chain isomers
C6H12
hex-1-ene, cyclohexane, methyl cyclopentane
positional isomers
same molecular formula but different position of the locant
Hexan-3-ol & hexan-2-ol
positional isomers
functional group isomers
same molecular formula but different functional group thats why different properties
ether and alcohol
FG iso
acid and esters
FG iso
alkyne and alkadiene
FG iso
aldehyde and ketone
FG iso
metamers
gen possible in divalent FG
symmetrical and unsymmetrical isomers in metamers
this arise due to diff size of R group on either side of functional group
