In the previous problem, you saw that there were two chiral carbons in 4-bromo-3-hydroxypentanal. That molecule is drawn below with the chiral carbons circled. What is the maximum number of stereoisomers that can exist for this molecule? Can you help me, please? Can you explain to me?
Please do parts A and B Consider (2R,3R)-2,3-diidobutane: (a) Draw a Fischer Projection of this structure with C1 on top and C4 on bottom. (b) Draw a Newman Projection of of the meso compound of 2,3-dibromobutane looking down the C2-C3 bond with C2 in front, and label your asymmetric carbons as S or R.
