Very often, cis–trans stereoisomers contain double bonds or ring structures. In both cases the rotation of bonds is restricted or prevented. [4] When the substituent groups are oriented in the same direction, the diastereomer is referred to as cis, whereas when the substituents are oriented in opposing directions, the diastereomer is referred to as trans.
Enoyl-CoA-(∆) isomerase (EC 5.3.3.8, also known as dodecenoyl-CoA-(∆) isomerase, 3,2-trans-enoyl-CoA isomerase, ∆3(cis),∆2(trans)-enoyl-CoA isomerase, or acetylene-allene isomerase, [1] is an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of cis- or trans-double bonds of coenzyme A (CoA) bound fatty acids at gamma-carbon (position 3) to trans double bonds at beta-carbon (position 2) as below:
trans-1,3-Disubstituted cyclohexanes are like cis-1,2- and cis-1,4- and can flip between the two equivalent axial/equatorial forms. [ 2 ] Cis -1,4-Di- tert -butylcyclohexane has an axial tert -butyl group in the chair conformation and conversion to the twist-boat conformation places both groups in more favorable equatorial positions.
The most stable trans-isomers of 10 ring or greater cycloalkenes exhibit 4 irregularities from standard geometric norms. The first irregularity is twisted planes of substituents along the C=C. Using C=C as the stable axis, 2 substituents of 1 carbon can be visualized on the same plane, equally applied to the other carbon.
1,2-Diaminocyclohexane (DACH) is an organic compound with the formula (CH 2) 4 (CHNH 2) 2. It is a mixture of three stereoisomers: cis-1,2-diaminocyclohexane and both enantiomers of trans-1,2-diaminocyclohexane. The mixture is a colorless, corrosive liquid, although older samples can appear yellow. It is often called DCH-99 and also DACH.
With cycloheptene, the cis-isomer is always assumed but the trans-isomer does also exist. One procedure for the organic synthesis of trans-cycloheptene is by singlet photosensitization of cis-cycloheptene with methyl benzoate and ultraviolet light at −35 °C. [2] The double bond in the trans isomer is very strained. [3]
Because (1R,3R)-1,2,3-trimethylcyclopentane is a cycloalkane, its three methyl substituents are capable of exhibiting cis/trans isomerism. This implies that the methyl groups in positions 1,2, and 3 may occupy different spatial arrangements (i.e.they may either lay cis or trans with respect to each other).
cis,cis-1,3,5-Triaminocyclohexane is an organic compound with the formula (CH 2 CHNH 2) 3. It is a triamine. Of the many isomers possible for triaminocyclohexane, the cis,cis-1,3,5-derivative has attracted attention because it is a common tripodal ligand, abbreviated as tach. It is a colorless oil.
