1
New cards

structural isomer

a molecule that has the same molecular formula but a different bonding arrangement than another molecule

2
New cards

cyclic compounds

organic compounds that form rings instead of straight lines

3
New cards

cis-trans isomers

have the same molecular formula but a different spatial orientation

4
New cards

cis-isomer

if the atoms bonded to the double bond are on the same side

5
New cards

trans-isomer

if the atoms bonded to the double bond are on different sides

6
New cards

requirements for a cis-trans isomer

double bond, each carbon of the double bond to have different groups attatched

7
New cards

reason for double bond

a double bond means that there is no free rotation meaning that particles that are attatched to it can’t rotate and change position
