Configuration is saptical arrangement of atoms present in molecules which is stable in general conditions. There is large difference of energies in these configuration. To interconvert one configuration to another bond fission or bond formations is necessary which is not possible in ordinary conditions. They can be isolated with each other. If different configuration obtained […]

Cahn – Ingold – Prelog priority sequence can be usefully applied in giving names to such a structure. The group of highest priority, on both the double bonded carbon atom is first chosen. If the two group of highest priority are on the opposite side of the double bond. The alphabet E (from the German […]

Although benzene molecule is unsaturated yet it does not give the test for unsaturation, it behaves as stable molecule and gives electrophilic substitution reaction. This property of benzene is known as aromaticity. Organic compounds which have similar chemical behaviour as benzene show aromatic property. Some important properties of the these compounds are shown below: (i) […]
