Consider the following reaction sequences and choose the correct option. [figure]

  1. M and N are stereoisomers
  2. K and L are geometrical isomers
  3. K and L are enantiomers
  4. M and N are geometrical isomers

Answer

(2) K and L are geometrical isomers

Solution

Controlled hydrogenation of 1-phenylprop-1-yne with Lindlar's catalyst (H2, Pd/C partially deactivated with quinoline, as per NCERT) yields the cis-alkene, so K is (Z)-1-phenylprop-1-ene.

Reduction with sodium in liquid ammonia (Na/liq. NH3) yields the trans-alkene, so L is (E)-1-phenylprop-1-ene.

Therefore, K and L are geometrical isomers (diastereomers). Answer: (2)
