The isomerism that arises due to restricted bond rotation is
The isomerism that arises due to restricted bond rotation is
Options
- Ametamerism
- Bontical isomerism
- Cposition isomerism
- Dgeometrical isomerism
Correct answer
D. geometrical isomerism
Step-by-step solution
Basic needs for geometrical isomerism are
(i) Presence of double bond, i.e., restricted rotation which also may be in case of single bond as in cycloalkanes.
(ii) Doubly bonded carbon atom must be linked to two different groups.
