Concept Introduction:
Stereoisomers which are non-superimposable and not mirror image are known as diastereomer. The compound must contain two or more than two stereocentre. Diastereomer are non identical stereoisomers. The pair of stereoisomer which are mirror image of each other are known as enantiomers. Enantiomers are non-congruent mirror images. If the molecules are placed on top of each other they will not give same molecule.
