The number of geometrical isomers of `(A)` can be `:`

A

a. 2

B

b. 3

C

c. 4

D

d. 5

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
c
Proceeding reverse, the structure of `(A)` is `:`

`(A)` has one asymmetric `C` atom `implies` two optical isomers and has one `(C=C)` with two different groups `implies` geometrical isomers.
Total number of stereoisomers `=4`.
