Chapter 5.7, Problem 20P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation: Two stereogenic centers in the given compound are to be labeled and all possible stereoisomers are to be drawn.

Concept introduction: A compound exhibits large number of stereoisomers when it contains more than one stereogenic centers. The maximum number of stereoisomers a compound with n number of stereogenic centers can show is 2n. A carbon atom which is bonded to four different groups is termed as chiral center or stereogenic center.
