Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The product of the following transformation has to be drawn, and show the single steroisomer product of this transformation. Also the most stable possibel chair species should be identifed.
Concept Introduction:
Stereoisomers are isomers which have different spatial arrangement in spite of same bond connectivity. Stereoisomers are due to the presence of sterocenters. Stereo center may be an atom axis (bond) or plane from which interchanging of two groups leads to stereoisomers.
Asymmetric center is a sterocenters which arises to hydrocarbons if the carbon is bonded to four different groups.
Anomers are represented as
