Which of the following will show geometrical isomerism?
- A 2-methylbut-2-ene
- B 1,2-dibromopropene
- C Cyclohexene
- D 2-methylpropene
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) 1,2-dibromopropene
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Geometrical isomerism is exhibited by alkenes if both carbon atoms of the double bond are attached to two different groups. For 2-methylbut-2-ene, the structure is \(CH_3-C(CH_3)=CH-CH_3\). One carbon of the double bond is attached to two identical methyl groups, so it does not…
