Question
Chapter 15, Problem 63P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The existence of enantiomeric forms of the given compound is to be explained.
Concept introduction:
Enantiomers are a pair of compounds which are non-superimposable mirror images of each other.
The compounds having plane of symmetry do not exhibit enantiomeric forms.
.Enantiomers are pairs of stereoisomers that are chiral.
Chirality is a tetrahedral coordination of four different groups about a central atom.
