Get started for freeThere are four isomers that have the molecular formula \(\mathrm{C}_{4} \mathrm{H}_{9}\) Br. Draw the structural formula for each one. Name each compound using IUPAC rules.
Although it was not discussed in the chapter, it is possible for a hydrocarbon molecule to have more than one site of unsaturation. One such molecule is 1,3 -butadiene; the \(d i\) - tells us there are two double bonds in the molecule. Give the molecular formula and line drawing for this molecule.
