Study Notes

Structural Isomerism

Structural isomerism is a phenomenon exhibited by compounds that have the same molecular formula but differ in their molecular structure.
This phenomenon is not limited to hydrocarbons, but can be observed in all organic compounds and their derivatives.
The cause of structural isomerism is the similarity in the arrangement of atoms within the molecule.
There are multiple ways in which structural isomerism can be exhibited, with varying arrangements of atoms leading to different molecular structures.
Organic compounds, including their derivatives, can exhibit structural isomerism due to the flexibility in the arrangement of atoms within the molecule.
