Question
Chapter 3, Problem 3.36P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Chirality of the drawn structures has to be checked and also their optical rotation at
Concept Introduction:
Chiral center:
A tetrahedral atom that is bonded to four different groups is called as chiral center. The most commonly known tetrahedral atom is carbon.
Meso compound:
It is an achiral compound having two or more chiral centers that also has chiral isomers.
