Unique approach of

problem Solving in
Isomerism

By
K. Chandana.
 Problem Solving-1
• Write all10 alcohol of molecular
formula C4H8O.
• Method
• => D.U =1
• FGA=> must be C=C or cycle.
• CCA=> Only 4 types (discussed in
• Previous lecture.)
• PA=> Just write all types of
chain=>identify 10 position place, OH
=>Place C=C at remaining position if
applicable =>discard unstable
compounds and count.
 Problem Solving-1
• Answer=4 (5,6 are
unstable)
 Problem Solving-2
• Write all aldehyde of molecular
formula C4H8O.
• Method
• => D.U =1
• FGA=> C=O is present in aldehyde=>
remaining atoms must be  bonded
and acyclic.
• CCA=> Only 2 types open chain
• PA=> Just write all types of
chain=>identify 10 position
position.=> place =O =>discard
unstable compounds and count.
 Problem Solving-2
• Answer=2
