Question
C6H5C≡NC6H5C≡N and C6H5 N→=CC6H5 N=→C exhibit whichtype of isomerism?BITSAT 2011
Solution
The compounds C6H5C≡NC6H5C≡N and C6H5N→=CC6H5N=→C exhibit tautomeric isomerism.
Tautomeric isomerism is a special type of functional isomerism and involves the simultaneous shift of a proton and a switching of a single bond and adjacent double bond. In this case, the compounds can interconvert by moving a hydrogen from the nitrogen to the carbon, resulting in a different arrangement of atoms and thus a different compound.
