**Objective:** Determine the stereochemical relationships between pairs of organic compounds and classify them as one of the following:
- Identical/Same
- Enantiomer
- Meso Compounds
- Constitutional Isomer
- Diastereomer
- Unrelated
Below are the compound pairs to be analyzed:
---
#### Pair a)
- Structure 1: Ethyl group (C₂H₅), Methyl group (CH₃), Hydroxyl group (OH), and Bromine (Br) attached to a chiral center.
- Structure 2: Methyl group (CH₃), Ethyl group (C₂H₅), Hydroxyl group (OH), and Bromine (Br) attached to a chiral center.
#### Pair b)
- Structure 1: Propyl group with Hydroxyl (OH) and Bromine (Br) on adjacent carbons; Hydroxyl above the plane.
- Structure 2: Same as Structure 1, with Hydroxyl and Bromine positions switched; Hydroxyl below the plane.
#### Pair c)
- Structure 1: Methylthio group (SCH₃) and Bromine (Br) attached to a chiral carbon.
- Structure 2: Same as Structure 1, methylthio and bromine positions switched.
#### Pair d)
- Structure 1 and 2: Cyclohexene ring with Hydrogen above the plane in one and below in the other.
#### Pair e)
- Structure 1: Cyclohexane chair conformation with Chlorine (Cl), Hydroxyl (OH), Bromine (Br), and Methyl group (CH₃) in specific positions.
- Structure 2: Same structure but with Cl and Br exchanged in position.
#### Pair f)
- Structure 1: Aldehyde group (CHO) with methyl group attached.
- Structure 2: Ketone group with two methyl groups attached.
#### Pair g)
- Structure 1: Fischer projection with Ethyl group (C₂H₅), Bromine (Br), Hydroxyl (OH), and Methyl group (CH₃).
- Structure 2: Same as Structure 1, the positions of ethyl and bromine switched.
#### Pair h)
- Structure 1: Fischer projection with Carboxylic Acid (COOH) and Amine
