Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The given pair of compounds is to be classified as enantiomers, epimers, diastereomers but not epimers or constitutional isomers of each other.
Concept introduction: Two compounds which are non-superimposable mirror images of each other are known as enantiomers, two compounds which are neither superimposable nor mirror images to each other are known as diastereomers and two compound in which the configuration of one of their stereogenic centers is different are known as epimers.
(b)
Interpretation: The given pair of compounds is to be classified as enantiomers, epimers, diastereomers but not epimers or constitutional isomers of each other.
