In the given reaction, which type of isomerism is primarily observed?
Options
- AStructural isomerism
- BGeometric isomerism
- CChain isomerism
- DPosition isomerism
Correct answer
A. Structural isomerism
Step-by-step solution
The given reaction involves the conversion of straight-chain alkanes to branched-chain alkanes, resulting in a change in the structural arrangement of atoms. This is an example of structural isomerism.
