CH 2 = CH CH 2 CH 3CH 3 C = C CH 3CH 3CH 3 CH = CH CH CH 3CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 CH 3CH 3 CH =CH 22
Multiple Multiple BondsIf there is more than one multiple bond in an organic compound,the name of the compound is changed to a _____diene, with theplacing of the double bonds indicated at the beginning of the parentname.CH 2 = C C = CH 2CH 3CH 33
