Interpretation Introduction
a)
Interpretation:
The chirality centres present in Guaiol are to be indicated by asterisks and the maximum possible number of stereisomers possible is also to be stated.
Concept introduction:
A chirality centre has a carbon attached to four different groups. The maximum number of isomers possible is given by 2n where n is the number of different chiral centres present in the molecule.
To indicate:
The chirality centres present in guaiol are to be indicated by asterisks and to state the maximum possible number of stereisomers for it.
