Which type of isomerism is shown by But-2-yne and cyclobutene?
Which type of isomerism is shown by But-2-yne and cyclobutene?
- A. Ring chain isomerism
- B. Chain isomerism
- C. Position isomerism
- D. Functional isomerism
Step-by-step solution
But-2-yne and cyclobutene have the same molecular formula (C4H6) but differ in the arrangement of atoms: But-2-yne is an open-chain alkyne with a triple bond, while cyclobutene is a cyclic alkene. This is an example of ring-chain isomerism.
