### Practice Question

**1. Draw all possible isomers and label each chiral center as R or S.**

#### Diagram Description:
The molecular structure shown in the diagram includes:

- A benzene ring on the left.
- An attached carbon chain extending from the benzene ring:
  - First carbon (labeled with 1) is bonded to:
    - A hydroxyl group (OH).
    - A methyl group (CH₃).
  - Second carbon (labeled with 2) is bonded to:
    - A nitrogen atom (N) with a:
      - Hydrogen atom (H).
      - Methyl group (CH₃).

The task requires identifying chiral centers in the structure and drawing all stereoisomers, then labeling each chiral center as either R or S configuration.

Expert Solution
Step 1

The molecules with the same molecular formula but different structures are known as isomers. If the two molecules have the same molecular formula and the same bond connectivity but the arrangements of the atoms in space are different, are stereoisomers of each other.

If the stereoisomers are mirror images of each other, they are known as optical isomers or enantiomers of each other.

If the stereoisomers do not mirror images of each other, they are known as diastereomers of each other.
