Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The structures of each isomers formed by the substitution of a chlorine atom in place of a hydrogen atom of 3-methylpentane are to be predicted. The chiral isomers among the corresponding isomers are to be identified. The relationship of the corresponding stereoisomer with each other is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Those compounds which have the same molecular formula but have different arrangements of atoms are known as isomers. The phenomenon is called isomerism. The isomers are generally classified as structural isomers and stereoisomers. Stereoisomers are further divided into two categories diastereomers and enantiomers.
