Question
Chapter 7, Problem 7.7P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Number of stereoisomers possible for enanthotoxin has to be given.
Concept introduction:
Chiral centre:
A chiral molecule/ion is non-superimposable on its mirror image.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
There is one tetrahedral chiral centre (marked with an
) and three double bonds that can show cis-trans isomerism, so there are 24 or 16 possible stereoisomers.
Hence, the totally 16 isomer is possible.
