  7. $\text{CH}_3-\text{O}-\text{CH}-\text{CH}_3\\\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\\\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \text{CH}_3$
Which of the above compounds form pairs of metamers?
✓

Answer

When two or more compounds have same molecular formula but different alkyl groups on either side of the functional group, the compounds are called metameres. In the given structures V and VI or VI and VII form a pair of metameres because alkyl groups are different on either side of the functional group -0.,
  1. $\text{CH}_3-\text{CH}_2-\text{O}-\text{CH}_2-\text{CH}_3${Metameres}
  2. $\text{CH}_3-\text{O}-\text{CH}_2-\text{CH}_2-\text{CH}_3${Metameres}
and
  1. $\text{CH}_3-\text{O}-\text{CH}_2-\text{CH}_2-\text{CH}_3${Metameres}
  2. $\text{CH}_3-\text{O}-\text{CH}-\text{CH}_3\\\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\\\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \text{CH}_3$(Metameres}
