Question
Chapter 4, Problem 64P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason should be explained for the given compound has four stereoisomers when it has only one asymmetric center.
Concept introduction:
The total number of stereoisomers can be calculated by using following formula,
Cis–trans isomerism (or) geometric isomerism or configurational isomerism:
The two similar groups (or higher priority groups) are in same side in double bond of

b. Now consider the two bicyclic molecules A. and B. Note that A. is a dianion
and B. is a neutral molecule. One of these molecules is a highly reactive
compound first characterized in frozen noble gas matrices, that self-reacts
rapidly at temperatures above liquid nitrogen temperature. The other
compound was isolated at room temperature in the early 1960s, and is a
stable ligand used in organometallic chemistry. Which molecule is the more
stable molecule, and why?
