Question

What is the relationship between the structures shown below? 
A)not isomers 
B)constitutional isomers 
C)conformational isomers 
D)configurational isomers 
E)enantiomers

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The two structures are constitutional isomers, meaning that they have the same molecular formula but different connectivity of atoms in their structures. They are not the same molecule simply arranged differently (conformational isomers), nor do they differ only in their spatial arrangement (configurational isomers), nor are they mirror images of each other (enantiomers).
