Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The enantiomer and chiral centers should be drawn for the given molecule by using its structure.

Concept Introduction: The chiral center is defined as an atom in a molecule that is bonded to four different chemical species. It is a stereocenter that holds asset of atoms in space such that the structure may not be superimposed on its mirror images.

The enantiomer and chirality in a molecule arises due to the one or more chiral center of each carbon atoms present in the given molecules.

The enantiomer is one of the two molecules that are mirror images of each other and are non-superimposable. The chiral molecules have point chirality at a single carbon atom, which has four different substituents.

To find: The enantiomers structure of given molecule.
