Classifying Compounds as Stereoisomers or Different Conformations
Classify each pair of compounds as stereoisomers or conformations: (a) X and Y; (b) X and Z.
Please identify the relationship between each pair of structures as: (i) identical, (ii) constitutional, (iii) conformational, (iv) enantiomers, or (v) diastereomers. Choose only one label per pair of structures.
