Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The name of the given compound is to be stated and whether it is a bridged or a fused bicyclic compound is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
A bicyclic compound in which bridgehead carbon atoms are adjacent to each other is known as fused bicyclic compound. However, if the bridgehead carbon atoms are not adjacent to each other than the compound is known as bridged bicyclic compound.
(b)
Interpretation:
The name of the given compound is to be stated and whether it is a bridged or a fused bicyclic compound is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
A bicyclic compound in which bridgehead carbon atoms are adjacent to each other is known as fused bicyclic compound. However, if the bridgehead carbon atoms are not adjacent to each other then the compound is known as bridged bicyclic compound.
