Which of the above compounds form pairs of metamers ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Metamerism arises due to different alkyl chains on either side of the functional group in the molecule. In the given structure V and VI or VI and VII form a pair of metamers because they differ in carbon atoms on the either side of the functional group, i.e., O-atom.
