(a)
Interpretation:
All the stereocentres should be marked using asterisk in the given molecule. Calculate the number of stereoisomers possible.
Concept Introduction:
The stereocentre is generated in an organic compound due to presence of chiral carbon.
The chiral carbon is the carbon bearing all the four groups different. Even isotopes are considered as different groups.
(b)
