Expert Solution

Step 1: Stereocentre

A stereocenter refers to an atom, the axis, or plane that serves as the main focus of stereoisomerism. A stereogenic center, which is also referred to as a stereocenter, is an atom that can be connected to four different atoms. It is an atom-bearing group in which the interrelationship of any two groups results in a stereoisomer.
