Which of the following compounds will show geometric isomerism?
- A Cyclohexane
- B 2-hexene
- C 3-hexyne
- D 1, 1-diphenylethylene
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) 2-hexene
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
2-hexene shows geometrical isomerism since each carbon of the doubles bond has two different substituent \(\left[\mathrm{CH}_3, \mathrm{H}\right]\) and \(\left[\mathrm{H}, \mathrm{CH}_2 \mathrm{CH}_2 \mathrm{CH}_3\right]\). 3-hexyne being linear does not show geometrical…
