Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around identifying the 12 isomers of the chemical compound C4H8BrCl. Participants are exploring the structural possibilities of the compound, including variations in carbon chain configuration.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Homework-related

Main Points Raised

  • One participant expresses difficulty in finding all 12 isomers for C4H8BrCl, stating they have only identified 8.
  • Another participant suggests considering non-linear carbon chains, specifically mentioning an isobutane configuration as a potential structure.
  • A request is made for the original poster to list the isomers they have already identified.
  • The original poster acknowledges the suggestion and believes they have accounted for all isomers after considering the non-linear configuration.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

The discussion does not reach a consensus on the total number of isomers, as the original poster initially identifies only 8, while others suggest that additional configurations may exist.

Contextual Notes

Participants have not detailed the specific isomers they have identified, nor have they resolved the total count of isomers definitively.

don't forget that the carbon chain does not need to be linear, you can have a 3-carbon chain with the 4th carbon hanging off of the middle (isobutane configuration).
 
Arnav - list what isomers you have.
 
thanx quetzalcoatl9, i completely forgot about that, i think i have em all now
