Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The identical, enantiomer, diastereomer or constitutional isomers for the given compound has to be identified from the given pairs of each compound.
Concept introduction:
Stereoisomers are isomers which have different spatial arrangement in spite of same bond connectivity. Stereoisomers are due to the presence of stereocenter.
The interchanging the solid-hatched wedge line of two groups of asymmetric centers will give different configuration.
Diastereomers are stereoisomers which are neither mirror images nor identical. If two stereoisomers are not enantiomers, then they are Diastereomers.
The configurations of pair of Enantiomers are opposite to each other and non-superimposable mirror images of each other.
Newman projection: Newman projection of molecule is one type of representations for the
From the angle of observer the front carbon is proximal and second carbon is distal.
In wedge-dash line representation wedge is coming out of the plane and going behind the plane, the wedge and the dash of front carbon in Newman projection are pointing up and the wedge and the dash of back carbon in Newman projection are pointing down.
