1-bromo-1-chlorocyclohexane has two positional isomers, also known as geometric isomers.
- These isomers differ in the spatial arrangement of the substituents (bromine and chlorine) around the cyclohexane ring.
- The first isomer is cis-1-bromo-1-chlorocyclohexane, where the bromine and chlorine substituents are on the same side of the ring. This isomer can be represented as:
Br-C-C-C-C-C-Cl
- The second isomer is trans-1-bromo-1-chlorocyclohexane, where the bromine and chlorine substituents are on opposite sides of the ring. This isomer can be represented as:
Br-C-C-C-C-C-Cl
- The cis-isomer is less stable and more reactive than the trans-isomer due to the interaction between the electron-withdrawing chlorine atom and the electron-donating bromine atom on the same side of the ring (cis effect) which causes ring strain.
- The cis-isomer is represented by the number 6543 and trans-isomer is represented by the number 4321.
