The isomerism that arises due to restricted bond rotation is

Question

The isomerism that arises due to restricted bond rotation is (A) metamerism (B) optical isomerism (C) position isomerism (D) geometrical isomerism

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Basic needs for geometrical isomerism are (i) Presence of double bond, ie, restricted rotation which also may be in case of single bond as in cycloalkanes. (ii) Doubly bonded carbon atom must be linked to two different groups.
