1 And if so , what would that tell about the way the carbon skeleton is bonded together ?
2 It is if you had the other compound where this O H group was on carbon number two as well then those two would be positional isomers cos their carbon skeleton would then be the same and all they would differ is in the position of the O H functional group .
3 Yeah , so if you had if I try and draw it much the same if you had that and let's choose let's choose er , well le , let's keep the same let's keep to the same carbon chain if you had that the carbon skeleton is exactly the same the only way it differs is that the O H group here is on carbon one of that chain that we 've chosen where as here , it 's on carbon two of that chain .
4 But either one of these and what we 've already put up you ca n't really call them positional isomers cos the basic carbon skeleton is different .
5 Right , finally something like a carbon carbon just do a simple one they balance for the carbon skeleton these are true positional isomers , no other problem with them at all er erm !
6 So this one would be called bute two E and so again , these are true positional isomers same carbon skeleton they differ in the position of the principle functional group , which in this case , has to be a special electrons .
7 If I just draw the carbon skeleton .
