Q. $C_{5}H_{10}\overset{H_{2} / N i}{ \rightarrow }\left(X\right)\overset{C l_{2} / h v}{ \rightarrow }3$ monochloro structural isomers for compound $C_{5}H_{10}$ how many pairs of geometrical isomers are possible?

Solution:

$C_{5}H_{10}\overset{H_{2} / N i}{ \rightarrow }\left(X\right)\overset{C l_{2} / h v}{ \rightarrow }3$ monochloro structural isomers f(X) must have 3-type of H, so it is n-pentane

Possible structure of $C_{5}H_{10}$ is

$CH_{3}-CH_{2}-CH_{2}-CH=CH_{2}$ no G.I

$CH_{3}-CH=CH-CH_{2}-CH_{3}$ Geometrical Isomer

Only one pair of G.I is possible (cis/trans)
