Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The given molecule is same or different enantiomer of the shown original molecule is to be identified.
Concept introduction:
Isomers are molecules having same connectivity. Enantiomers are nonsuperimposable mirror images. If the molecules can be interconverted by one or more single bond rotation, then they are said to be the same enantiomer or identical molecules. If the molecules are not able to interconvert, then they are enantiomers of each other.

Answer to Problem 5.37P
