no?
but the corresponding octene is known

chemloli, get in the van

It's a structure that can't exist (at least for any meaningful amount of time) because of horrific internal strains

first trans db containing ring should be 8C's?

Bond travel too far, bond no able seek far away place. 3-4 sigma no link many miles from home, make electron sad, journey stretch too much, break spirit of bonding.

nice try man, keep working on that English

Nah I'm a native English speaker, just trying to dumb it down to the level that someone who would seriously consider a bond at that distance as a plausible chemical structure would understand. Even if you could make that molecule through some magical trolling of all energy knowledge, you're going to see that it'll break apart the moment it sees any other potential covalent bond, so that molecule will be too short lived to even observe.

Like that 3-4 sigma bond isn't going to last. At all. Ever. Even under extremely low temperatures (<100K) that thing is going to prefer polymerization over ring structure.

I'd optimize her structure at the BL3YP-D level of theory, if you know what I mean
