A series of organic compounds having the same functional group but with each successive memeber differing by CH2
1 of 9
Structural isomers
Compounds with the same molecular formula but different structural formula
2 of 9
Radical
Species with an unpaired electron
3 of 9
Stereoisomers
Compounds with the same structural formula but with a different arrangement in space
4 of 9
E/Z isomerism
Stereoisomerism, in terms of restricted rotation about a double bond and the requirement for two different groups to be attached to each carbon atom of the C=C group
5 of 9
Cis- trans isomerism
A special c ase of E/Z in which two of thr substituent groups attached to each carbon atom of the C=C group are the same
6 of 9
Electrophile
An electron pair acceptor
7 of 9
Nucleophile
An electron pair donor
8 of 9
