Why Conjugated Dienes are more stable than non Conjugated Dienes?
A conjugated diene is more stable than a non-conjugated diene when the latter is cyclic; for non-cyclic conjugated dienes, the conformation, as well as strain energy, may destabilize the molecule. Are alkenes more stable than Dienes? Dienes are less reactive than are ethylene molecules because they have only three reactive centers compared to four reactive…
