Draw all structural and geometric isomers of butene and name them.

The parent hydrocarbon is butene, which has four carbon atoms and a double bond (C4H8). The double bond can be placed at the beginning or in the middle of the carbon chain.

Two structural isomers of butene can be formed based on the location of the double bond: 1. 1-butene: Double bond starts at the first carbon atom. 2. 2-butene: Double bond starts at the second carbon atom. The molecular structures of the isomers are: 1-butene: CH2=CH-CH2-CH3 2-butene: CH3-CH=CH-CH3

For 2-butene, we can have geometric isomers due to restricted rotation around the double bond. Geometric isomers differ in the relative position of the substituents on either side of the double bond. There are two possible geometric isomers: 1. cis-2-butene: Both methyl (CH3) groups are on the same side of the double bond. 2. trans-2-butene: The methyl (CH3) groups are on opposite sides of the double bond. The molecular structures of the geometric isomers are: cis-2-butene: H H \ / C= C / \ CH3 H trans-2-butene: H CH3 \ / C=C / \ H CH3 Now we have identified and drawn all structural and geometric isomers of butene, which are: 1. 1-butene 2. cis-2-butene 3. trans-2-butene
