Which type of stereoisomerism is exhibit...

Which type of stereoisomerism is exhibited by the compound, `CH_(3)CH=CH-CH=CHC_(2)H_(5)`? How many stereoisomers are possible? Draw the structured and designate them as E/Z.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The compound exhibits geometrical because the groups attached to each of the terminal doubly bonded carbon atoms are different. The number of geometrical isomers = `2^(n)` (n = number of double bond) = `2^(2) = 4`. These are as follow:
