Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

Intermediates in the citric acid cycle which contain two chirality centers should be mentioned.

Concept Introduction:

If a carbon atom is attached to four different groups, then it is known as a chiral carbon. If any one of the four groups is different, the carbon is termed as achiral in nature.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

Intermediates that contain secondary alcohol should be mentioned.

Concept Introduction:

Secondary alcohol is alcohol in which the carbon atom bonded to the hydroxyl group is bonded to another two carbon atoms. So there is one C-O bond, 2 C-C bonds and 1 C-H bond.
