Which of the following compound(s) can show geometrical isomerism?
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is C
Condition to show geometrical isomerism :
X and Y must have different groups/atoms attached to carbon on the same side of double bond.
Among given compounds, (a) and (c) show geometrical isomerism as they have different groups/atoms attached to carbon on the same side of double bond.
compound (b) and (d) have identical atoms on the same side of double bond; therefore, it can not show cis-trans isomerism.
