Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The structures that clearly indicate the stereochemistry of the given compounds has to be drawn.

Concept Introduction:

Stereochemistry is defined as the arrangement of molecule in three-dimensional space and its impact on a chemical reaction.

The use of prefix E and Z depends upon the location of the priority of the groups that are associated with each of them. The priority order depends upon the atomic number of the elements. If two higher priority groups are present on the opposite side, then the isomer is known as E isomer but if these groups are present on the same side, then it is Z isomer.
