For example, the following hydrogen atom migration is of order [1,5], attained by counting counterclockwise through the π system, rather than the [1,3] order designation through the ring CH 2 group that would mistakenly result if counted clockwise. As a general approach, one can simply draw the transition state of the reaction.
In one isomer the CO ligands are terminal. When a pair of CO are bridging, cis and trans isomers are possible depending on the location of the C 5 H 5 groups. [7] Another example in organometallic chemistry is the linkage isomerization of decaphenylferrocene, [(η 5-C 5 Ph 5) 2 Fe]. [8] [9] Formation of decaphenylferrocene from its linkage isomer
Isotopomers or isotopic isomers are isomers which differ by isotopic substitution, and which have the same number of atoms of each isotope but in a different arrangement. For example, CH 3 OD and CH 2 DOH are two isotopomers of monodeuterated methanol .
Isomers themselves exist in many varieties but can generally be classified as structural isomers or stereoisomers. Structural isomers have a different ordering of bonds and/or different bond connectivity from one another, as in the case of hexane and its four other isomeric forms ( 2-methylpentane , 3-methylpentane , 2,2-dimethylbutane , and 2 ...
For example, 3-methyl-1-pentene with a rectus assignment is formatted as (R)-3-methyl-1-pentene. [12] An example of a (s) descriptor: (1R,2s,3S)-1,2,3-trichlorocyclopentane. A practical method of determining whether an enantiomer is R or S is by using the right-hand rule: one wraps the molecule with the fingers in the direction 1 → 2 → 3.
The alcohol "3-propanol" is not another isomer, since the difference between it and 1-propanol is not real; it is only the result of an arbitrary choice in the direction of numbering the carbons along the chain. For the same reason, "ethoxymethane" is the same molecule as methoxyethane, not another isomer.

Tricyclo[4,2,0,0 2,5]octa-3,7-diene. The dimer of cyclobutadiene occurs as a cis isomer and a trans isomer. Both isomers convert to COT (symmetry forbidden hence stable) with a half-life of 20 minutes at 140 °C [10]
