(a)
Interpretation:
The enantiomeric compound of W needs to be determined.
Concept introduction:
In chemistry, enantiomers are two stereoisomers that are mirror images of each other.
(b)
Interpretation:
The enantiomeric compound of Xneeds to be determined.
Concept introduction:
In chemistry, enantiomers are two stereoisomers that are mirror images of each other.
(c)
Interpretation:
The diastereomericcompound of Yneeds to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Diastereomers are compounds with same molecular formula, and also they should be non-mirror & non-identical stereoisomers.
(d)
Interpretation:
Thediastereomericcompound of Zneeds to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Diastereomers are compounds with same molecular formula, and also they should be non-mirror & non-identical stereoisomers.
