Question
Chapter 4.12, Problem 31P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The compounds having one or more asymmetric centers from the given list of compounds has to be identified.
Concept introduction:
Chirality of a molecule is due to presence of an asymmetric center or chiral center.
Asymmetric center is arises to hydrocarbons if the carbon is bonded to four different groups.
