Question
The incorrect statement regarding the geometrical isomers of 2-butene is: (A) cis-2-butene and trans-2-butene are not interconvertible at room temperature. (B) cis-2-butene has less dipole moment than trans-2-butene. (C) trans-2-butene is more stable than cis-2-butene. (D) cis-2-butene and trans-2-butene are stereoisomers.
Answer: B
💡 Solution & Explanation
C = C H CH3 CH3 H Cis–but–2–ene C = C H CH3 H Trans–but–2–ene CH3 (Polar) (Non Polar) Cis–but–2–ene has higher Dipole moment than trans–but–2–ene.
