Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The enantiomeric forms of bromochlorofluoromethane along with their correct configuration are to be written.

Concept introduction:

The objects that are non-superimposable or not identical with its mirror image are known as chiral objects.

A pair of two mirror images that are non-identical is known as enantiomers.

The enantiomers in which the path traced from the highest atomic number to the lowest atomic number is in anticlockwise direction are designated as provided that among the four groups attached to the chiral carbon, the least priority group is in horizontal position in Fischer projection S.

The enantiomers in which the path traced from the highest atomic number to the lowest atomic number is in the clockwise direction are designated as provided that among the four groups attached to the chiral carbon, the least priority group is in horizontal position in Fischer projection R.
