 Laboration 4: Alkene isomers
In most cases, there is a difference in the stability between cis- and trans-isomers of alkenes.
-bond, a 1,2-disubstituted alkene can exist in two different isomeric forms, namely cis and trans.
This is due to the fact that much more energy is needed to rotate a C=C bond than a C-C bond, and thus, the cis- and trans-isomers of an alkane can not equilibrate.

ALKYL GROUPS STABILIZE AN ALKENE MORE THAN A HYDROGEN DOES.
THE TRANS STEREOISOMER IS MORE STABLE THAN THE CIS STEREOISOMER SINCE THE TRANS DOES NOT HAVE THE STERIC INTERFERENCE (STRAIN) THAT THE CIS DOES!

 Stereoisomers
As a result, certain disubstituted alkenes may exist as a pair of configurational stereoisomers, often designated cis and trans.
Unlike the relatively flat molecules of alkenes, substituted cycloalkanes must be viewed as three-dimensional configurations in order to appreciate the spatial orientations of the substituents.
This is similar to the substitution pattern that gives rise to stereoisomers in alkenes; indeed, one might view a double bond as a two-membered ring.

 Diels-Alder Mechanism
In solution, the carbon-carbon single bond in the diene that connects the two alkenes is constantly rotating, so at equilibrium there is usually some mixture of dienes in the s-trans conformation and some in the s-cis conformation.
Because of the Diels-Alder's requirement for having the diene in a s-cis conformation, dienes in rings react particularly rapidly because they are "locked" in the s-cis conformation.
One quirk of the Diels-Alder reaction is that the diene is required to be in the s-cis conformation in order for the Diels-Alder reaction to work.

 Essentials of General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry
Because rotation about a carbon - carbon double bond is restricted, some alkenes exist in two isomeric (cis - trans) forms.
When both the alkene and the reactant are unsymmetrical, the addition proceeds according to Markovnikov's rule: The carbon atom of the double bond that already has the greater number of H atoms gets one more.
Cis - trans isomerism is possible when each carbon of the double bond is attached to two different groups.

This will rapidly convert to the more stable "chair" conformation, placing (for the diene) the methyl groups of the diene 1,4-equatorial-axial, or cis- relative to each other (trans-trans yields cis-), and the methyl groups of the dienophile 1,2-diequatorial or trans- relative to each other (trans-dienophile yields trans-product).
The cis-trans diene will react with the dienophile to give a cyclohexene in an approximate "boat" conformation.
In a [4+2] cycloaddition reaction, new bonds will form between the terminal carbons of the diene and the alkene carbons of the dienophile, as shown below, to give the substituted cyclohexene product.

 Pericyclic Reaction Chemistry
The 1,3,5-cyclononatriene now has two cis and one trans double bonds, however, the nine membered ring is able to accommodate the strain of a trans alkene.
This thermal and photo selectivity can be exploited in the reaction sequence below in which 1,3,5-cyclononatriene is converted into bicyclic systems with first cis and then trans ring junctions.
This is thermally ring closed in a disrotatory manner and then photo-ring opened at -20°C in a conrotatory manner.

Thus, the hydroboration of tetrasubstituted alkenes and, in particular, bicyclic alkenes with BH3·THF at 50 °C provides, via a highly stereoselective 1,2-rearrangement and a remote C-H activation, a diol in which the relative stereochemistry of up to three centers has been controlled.
We have therefore prepared the trisubstituted alkene 16 and were pleased to find that the hydroboration of 16 with BH3·THF and subsequent heating of 16 in THF at 50 °C for 24 h furnished, after oxidative work-up, the diastereomerically pure diol 17 in 60 % yield (Scheme 3).
Although the 1,2-migration process of 9 to 12 should readily occur under the reaction conditions, the observed diastereoselectivity of the C-H rearrangement is difficult to explain (cis-arrangement of the substituents in 5).

 Diels-Alder Mechanism
Since the dienophile is cis disubstituted, you get the endo stereochemistry with the two cyano (CN) substituents pointing away from the top of the bicyclo compound.
One quirk of the Diels-Alder reaction is that the diene is required to be in the s-cis conformation in order for the Diels-Alder reaction to work.
The Diels-Alder reaction combines a diene (a molecule with two alternating double bonds) and a dienophile (an alkene) to make rings and bicyclic compounds.

 Student Doctor Network Forums - OC Question...Alkyne Reduction
Schaum's states that the reduction of an alkyne with Lindlar's catalyst (H2/Pd) results in a cis-alkene.
Catalytic hydrogenation is H2/Pd,Ni,Pt and they will reduce both an alkyne and an alkene to an alkane...so alkane is the answer to your question.
However, it is important to recognize that H2 addition is a syn addition (it could affect the stereochemistry in your answer).

 Oz
The conversion of an alkene to an ozonide is a 6-electron oxidation yet the oxidation of an alkene to two carbonyl compounds is a 4-electron oxidation.
, the zwitterions 6 and 7 undergo cycloaddition reactions with the carbonyl compounds 5 and 8 to form ozonides 9, 10 and 11, each of which can exist as a pair of diastereomers (cis/trans).
The two electron reduction of the O-O bond of the ozonide is often accomplished with zinc or dimethyl sulfide.

 CHEM 331, Organic Chemistry I
When the total number of substituents is 3 or 4, the isomers are classified as E or Z by assigning the order of priority of subsituents at each carbon of the double bond and giving an E designation to an alkene with the high priority substituents in a trans- configuration.
If the total number of different substituents on a double bond is 2, geometric isomers may be classified as cis- or trans-.
This leads to existence of (achiral) geometric isomers with a different arrangement of substituents around a double bond.

As with carbon-carbon double bonds, carbon-carbon triple bonds are not free to rotate, but the concept of cis-trans isomers about a triple bond does not make sense.
The parent chain in an alkyl substituted alkene is the longest chain that contains the double bond.

As with carbon-carbon double bonds, carbon-carbon triple bonds are not free to rotate, but the concept of cis-trans isomers about a triple bond does not make sense.
Because of the special bonding in benzene, it is not classified as an alkene and it is much less reactive than most alkenes.
The pi-bonding electrons (see a picture of the pi-bonding in benzene) in benzene are said to be delocalized and it is this delocalization that gives benzene and related compounds their low chemical reactivity.

 Chapter 25, Section 3
The location of the double bond along an alkene chain is indicated by a prefix number that designates the number of the carbon atom that is part of the double bond and is nearest an end of the chain.
Finally we note that the geometrical configuration at the double bond is cis; that is, the alkyl groups are bonded to the double bond on the same side.
The double bond begins at carbon 2 (numbering from the end closest to the double bond); thus the parent hydrocarbon chain is named 2-heptene.

 ORGANIC CHEMISTRY I - CHAPTER 6 LECTURE OUTLINE
Use of cis and trans in the nomenclature usually limited to disubstituted alkenes (alkenes where the double bonds have one hydrogen on each of the double bond carbons).
Upon examining hydrogen halide (HX) addition to alkenes, Markovnikov's Rule was proposed: In the addition of HX to an alkene, the H attaches to the carbon of the double bond with the fewest alkyl substituents (i.e., most H's) and the X attaches to the carbon with the most alkyl substituents.
For cycloalkenes, number the ring so that the double bond carbons are C-1 and C-2 and so that the branches get the lowest number possible.
