- What is the maximum number of stereoisomers possible for the attached compound?arrow_forwardDraw a pair of cis/trans stereoisomers with a molecular formula of C7H14. Label the cis compound and the trans compound.arrow_forwardAnalyze the structure of the two stereoisomers and then determine whether one or both of them is (are) chiral (s). Explain your reasoning.arrow_forward
- 2. What term best describes how the following structures/molecules are related to each other? Enantiomers Br b. Diastereomers c. Identical d. Constitutional Isomers سال Br Br Brarrow_forwardIn this question, you will draw all the constitutional isomers of CH4Br₂. This compound has an IHD of 1, which means it will either have one ring or one double bond. For this question, do not consider stereoisomers.arrow_forwardWhat are the stereoisomers of 1,4-dichlorobutane and 1,3-dichloro-2-methylbutane?arrow_forward
- Draw all the conformers of the molecule on the right as Newman projections sighted along the C3– C4 bond. Label the interactions present in each conformer. Rank the conformers from lowest to highest energy (some may be equal).arrow_forwardHow many unique stereoisomers exist for 1,2,3,4,5-pentachlorocyclohexane?arrow_forward2. The number of possible stereoisomers can be determined by the equation 2" where n = number of asymmetric centers. For the following molecule, what is the possible number of stereoisomers? Draw out all possible stereoisomers. Are there structures that are identical to each other? CH3 ноarrow_forward
- Draw all stable isomers of C4H9Cl. Be sure to label cis/trans isomers on rings, Z/E isomers on double bonds as well as R/S on chiral centersarrow_forwardIndicate the relationship between the two structures in the pair. Are they chair conformations of the same molecule? If so, are they conformational diastereomers, conformational enantiomers, or identical? If they are not conformations of the same molecule, what is their stereochemical relationship? CH₂ CH₂ H₂C H₂C CH₂ Which statement is true? Ho CH₂ They are chair conformations of the same molecule, and they are conformational enantiomers. They are different molecules, and they are enantiomers. They are different molecules, and they are diastereomers. They are identical conformations of the same molecule. They are chair conformations of the same molecule, and they are conformational diastereomers.arrow_forwardDraw a dash and wedge representation of all the possible stereoisomers of 1,2- dichlorocyclopentane. Describe their relationship to one another and then describe their optical activity:arrow_forward
