SUMMARY

The discussion revolves around understanding molecular structure based on given chemical names, specifically focusing on the compounds "3,5-diéthyl-4-isobutyl-6-méthylnonane" and "1,2-dibromo-3-chloro-5-éthylocta-1,4-diène." Participants clarify that the task involves determining the number of isomers for each compound, considering the presence of a tetrahedral carbon and a specific double bond. The conversation highlights the importance of recognizing molecular conformations and isomerism in organic chemistry.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of organic chemistry nomenclature
  • Knowledge of isomerism, including structural and stereoisomers
  • Familiarity with tetrahedral carbon structures

bonjour ! voici un exercice que je n'ai pas réussi a faire lors de mon dernier contrôle... pourriez vous m'aider pour que je puisse comprendre pour la prochaine fois? je vous remercie beaucoup.

"compte tenu de la présence d'un carbone tétraèdrique et d'une double liaison particulière, expliquer combien de molécules sont conformes aux informations données par le nom fourni pour définir (incomplètement) cette molécule."

je ne sais pas si il faut utiliser les noms des molécules de l'exercice précédent...
si elles sont nécessaires, les voici :
3,5-diéthyl-4-isobutyl-6-méthylnonane
et 1,2-dibromo-3-chloro-5-éthylocta-1,4-diène

I took 5 years of french love and i would be more than happy to help you :smile:, but I'm not 100% clear on what you are asking for. Could you clarify a little bit...by the way, my french was only to the four honors level so its not AP:blushing:. I'll still help as best I can. I also understand your frustration!
 
I believe she is asking for the number of isomers for each compound (but I suspect I'm wrong).

This is a double-post. The other copy is in K-12 homework help.
