part a and b. fisher projection and zig zag 

**Title:** Understanding Stereoisomers through Fisher Projections and Zigzag Conformations **Content:** **Task:** Convert the following Fisher projections into zigzag conformations and fill out the table describing the relationships between these stereoisomers. Label the table using: - E for enantiomer - D for diastereomer - O for other - M for meso - C for constitutional isomers **Fisher Projections:** 1. ![Molecule 1](CHO, H-OH, Br-H, H-OH, CH2OH) 2. ![Molecule 2](CHO, H-OH, H-Br, Br-H, CH2OH) 3. ![Molecule 3](CHO, HO-H, H-Br, H-OH, CH2OH) 4. ![Molecule 4](CHO, HO-H, Br-H, HO-H, CH2OH) 5. ![Molecule 5](CH2OH, H-OH, H-Br, Br-H, CHO) 6. ![Molecule 6](CH3, O=CO, Br-H, H-Br, CH2OH) **Part A:** **Relationship Table:** - [Table showing relationships between molecules 1-6] | | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | |---|---|---|---|---|---|---| | 1 | X | | | | | | | 2 | D | X | | | | | | 3 | | | X | | | | | 4 | | | | X | | | | 5 | | | | | X | | | 6 | | | | | | X | **Part B:** If one of the above molecules (1-6) is considered meso or otherwise explain why in the space below: --- [Molecule commentary and analysis space for educational purposes.] --- This task will help you grasp the relationships between different stereoisomers through structural analysis and spatial understanding of molecular geometry.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Homomers : Two isomers having superimposable relationship with each other are called homomers.

Enantiomers : Two isomers having non-superimposable mirror image relationship are called enantiomers.

Diasteromers : Two isomers having non-superimposable no mirror image relationship are called diasteromers.

Meso : Compound having plane of symmetry is called meso form.

Constitutional isomers : Two compounds having same molecular formula but different in structure/stereochemistry are called constitutional isomers.
