The total number of cyclic structure as ...

The total number of cyclic structure as well as stereoisomers possible for a compound with the molecular formula `C_(5)H_(10)` is:

A

(a) 7

B

(b) 9

C

(c) 12

D

(d) 13

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`C_(5)H_(10)=IDU`. It can be cyclic and cab be alkene.
Therefore, total cyclic and stereoisomers = 7
If it is alkane: Me

Other alkene structure:

Total number of cyclic, acyclic, and stereoisomers is 13. However, in the problem only cyclic structural and steroisomers have been asked. So the total number of isomers would be seven.
