Question

Which of the following can exist in syn and anti forms? (A) ( C 6 H 5) C = NOH (B) C 6 H 5- N = N - OH (C) C 6 H 5- N = N - C 6 H 5 (D) C 6 H 5- N = NOH

( C 6 H 5)2 C = NOH can't exist in syn and anti forms due to molecular symmetry because of the presence of two identical C 6 H 5 groups

Q. Which of the following can exist in syn and anti forms?

$(C_{6} H_{5}) C = NO H$

$C_{6} H_{5} - N = N - O H$

$C_{6} H_{5} - N = N - C_{6} H_{5}$

$C_{6} H_{5} - N = NO H$

$(C_{6} H_{5})_{2} C = NO H$ can't exist in syn and anti forms due to molecular symmetry because of the presence of two identical $C_{6} H_{5}$ groups

Q. Which of the following can exist in syn and anti forms?

(C6​H5​)C=NOH

C6​H5​−N=N−OH

C6​H5​−N=N−C6​H5​

C6​H5​−N=NOH

(C6​H5​)2​C=NOH can't exist in syn and anti forms due to molecular symmetry because of the presence of two identical C6​H5​ groups

$(C_{6} H_{5}) C = NO H$

$C_{6} H_{5} - N = N - O H$

$C_{6} H_{5} - N = N - C_{6} H_{5}$

$C_{6} H_{5} - N = NO H$

$(C_{6} H_{5})_{2} C = NO H$ can't exist in syn and anti forms due to molecular symmetry because of the presence of two identical $C_{6} H_{5}$ groups
