Chapter 4.11, Problem 38P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The identical, enantiomer and diastereomers for the given compound has to be identified from the given structures.

Concept introduction:

Stereoisomers are isomers which have different spatial arrangement in spite of same bond connectivity.  Stereoisomers are due to the presence of stereo center.

The interchanging of the solid-hatched wedge line of two groups of asymmetric centers will give different configuration.

Diastereomers are stereoisomers which are neither mirror images nor identical.  If two stereoisomers are not enantiomers, then they are Diastereomers.

The pair of enantiomers are non-superimposable mirror images of each other.
