Chapter 4.13, Problem 43P
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.
