Write structures and IUPAC names of different structural isomers of alkenes corresponding to C5H10

Open in App
Solution

Definition:
Structural isomers are those isomers in which the atoms are completely arranged in a different order with the same molecular formulas.

Structural isomers of C5H10:
we know, general formula of alkene is CnH2n. So, on comparison with given alkene C5H10, it contains only one double bond (=).
So, structural isomers of C5H10 can be drawn as:

(a) CH2=CHCH2CH2CH3
IUPAC name : Pent1ene

(b) CH3CH=CHCH2CH3
IUPAC name : Pent2ene

(c)

IUPAC name : 2Methylbut2ene

(d)
IUPAC name : 3Methylbut1ene

(e)

IUPAC name : 2Methylbut1ene
