Question
  1. Write structures of different isomeric amines corresponding to the molecular formula, $C_4H_{11}N.$
  2. Write $\text{IUPAC}$ names of all the isomers.
  3. What type of isomerism is exhibited by different pairs of amines?

Answer

$(i) \& (ii)$ There are total $8$ geometrical isomers of the given compound.
