The number of geometrical isomers possible for the compound, CH3\mathrm{CH}_3\mathrm{CH}=\mathrm{CH}−-\mathrm{CH}=\mathrm{CH}2_2 is

Options

  1. A2
  2. B3
  3. C4
  4. D6

Correct answer

A. 2

Step-by-step solution

Although CH3\mathrm{CH}_3\mathrm{C}=\mathrm{CH}−-\mathrm{CH}=\mathrm{CH}2_2 has two double bond but one of them has two similar atoms (i.e. H -atom) therefore no geometrical isomerism is possible around the double bond. However each carbon atom of other double bond has two different atoms/groups and hence geometrical isomerism is possible around this double bond. Hence, only two geometrical isomers are possible.
