Introduction to Alkenes

A hydrocarbon...

Question

A hydrocarbon with molecular formula $C_{6} H_{12}$ has four isomeric alkenes $A - D$ and all on hydrogenation yield the same methyl cyclopentane Also $C$ is the only one that can be resolved into enantiomers The heat of hydrogenation of $A, B$ and $D$ are in the order of $B < D < A$ . The heat liberated in the hydrogenation reaction. Identify $A$ to $D$ .

Solution

The isomers of methyl cyclopentane one which can be resolved in enantiomer is
Hence it is C,
The remaining are based on stability, more stable $\propto$ more hydrogenation energy.
