Draw the cis and trans structures of hex-2-ene. Which isomer will have higher b.p. and why?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The structures of cis-and trans-isomer of hex-2-ene are :

The boiling point of a molecule depends upon dipole-dipole interactions. Since cis-isomer has higher dipole moments , therefore, it has higher boiling point.
